API functionality to identify the current view

[Former Member]

Hi all,

is there some API functionality where I can identify the current top view. That should be the view to which the last plug has been fired.

Best regards,

Hi Christian,

not as far as i know. Also, since an outbound plug can be linked to multiple inbound plugs and you can fire multiple outbound plugs in one request/response cycle, the API method would have to return a list or array of views.

Since "somebody" (e.g. you;) fires the plug(s) it's rather easy to recognize which plugs were fired (last).

Why do you want to know this? Maybe there's another solution.

Best regards

Hi Stefan,

we need this information for providing page sensitive help.

What we did already is that we have a context element were the page is actually set (with some helper class of cause).

I just want to be sure that there is no easier way.

Thank you and best regards,

Christian
