this week its been quite much fun with SCSF.. fixing a bug of some 1 s so god damn challenging. this week we were going through the code base churned by all developers of our module .. n ma head was spinning so wild.. The weird things which i did discover in the code led me to few interesting things with the SCSF. its like the CAB as such is quite interesting, and on top of it SCSF still having its own bugs, and developers not knowing the entire SCSF to code something so silly turning out to be a disaster... guess i needn explain any further abt ma recent fun :P ;)

one of the interesting thing was, when more than one layout sit on top of each other. ideal scenario would be top most having the workitem.status == active. but we found tat wasnt th case always. Hence the same common view's instance sitting in a zone in more than one layout listens to the Events published, to execute in places we Never thought of Or in places we never wanted it to. The fix we rolled out was to get the Active smart part on the Deck workspace, cast it to a user control and perform a Depth first search to check if the current view is present or not in it!! Before performing any additional logics, on each time a event is Subscribed by a view.

There has been quite much noise even when the view which sits inside some other other view, Asks everything else to close. was just reading through,

tat was quite informative, and have already started to think how ma Monday is gona be :P ;)  Infact i got 2 say i am happy tat this time we are using SCSF as given to us from codeplex, unlike the WCSF which we used fr the last project.. we had completely customized the WCSF, infact it was to such an extent that i always prefer 2 say i have a working knowledge of the "virgin marry" WCSF :P ;)
