Re: [TFUI] Humble Dialog Versus Microsoft UIB

It's been a while since I worked with UIP, but here are something which 
I remember:

UIP depends on the Session State, but fails to detect when the session 
state is gone. When this happens, everything you try to do will fail 
with an exception.

ASP.NET is not servlets. You can implement your own HttpModules which 
can receive all calls and then delegate to some aspx, but you have to be 
carefull if you want to keep view state and postback events. ASP.NET 
creates the view first and pass the control to that view. UIP tries to 
reverse that order without modules and that's one thing which causes the 
Session State glitch.

You have to manually connect a controller to its view in Web.Config. Not 
excactly counter-architecture, but you end up with a huge web.config. 
It's easy to forget to rename the class/view names in web.config when 
you rename them in code. I never understood why this is necessary, all 
views has to know their controller anyway, as they have to cast from the 
generic Controller.

The concept of navigation graphs is broken. It doesn't work. I never 
managed to pass data between nav graphs.

But then again, it could be that I was using UIP the wrong way. 
Unfortunately for me, I got no corrections.
