Lift request processing flow chart

[Francois]

Hello guys,

I'm trying to better understand what happen when a request is processed
by Lift, and especially how/when rendering is done (for template,
snippets, etc). And it seems that there is a bunch of hooks and possible
path...

I didn't found much resources on that topic, safe for chapter 7.2 of
LiftBook, and the code itself.

I started to note the global request processing scheme, but I'm arriving
to a point where there is just too much information, and I didn't even
started to search what is happening with snippets.

I noted everything in an OpenOffice flow chart document available here:
- http://umbre.hd.free.fr/tmp/lift/lift_request_processing.odg

There is a first chart for the global request processing, and an other
for the HTTP request processing:
- http://umbre.hd.free.fr/tmp/lift/lift_request_processing_global.png
- http://umbre.hd.free.fr/tmp/lift/lift_request_processing_http.png

(it's on my pc, sorry for the slowness)

So, if anybody with knowledge of what is wrong or missing (all the
snippet binding for ex) in theses flow charts could point it, I will be
glad to correct them (and if it's okay, give them back to the community
(put them in the wiki or whatever)).

Ho, and of course, I would be glad to be pointed to any resources on
that topic :)

They look good, could you kick out larger pngs and upload either to
this group or to the Wiki?

Yeah... I think Francois just earned himself a job as the Lift request-flow guru.  Next thing, he'll be fixing bugs and put me and Marius out of a job. ;-)
