Lift disabling JavaScript not working in 3.0-M2

[Flavian Alexandru]

We are using the following 4 settings to:

• Disable all JavaScript loaded by Lift as we don't use any of it.
• Disable all container sessions as we run a completely stateless application.

Lift 3.0-M2 with Scala 2.11.7 if relevant completely fails to perform all 2 tasks. Sessions are still created and destroyed although no one asks for them and JavaScript is still loaded.

This is somehow loaded automatically:

var lift_settings = {"liftPath": "/lift", "ajaxRetryCount": 3, "ajaxPostTimeout": 5000, "gcPollingInterval": 75000, "gcFailureRetryTimeout": 15000, "cometGetTimeout": 140000, "cometFailureRetryTimeout": 10000, "cometServer": null, "logError": function(msg) {}, "ajaxOnFailure": function() {alert("The server cannot be contacted at this time");}, "ajaxOnStart": function() {}, "ajaxOnEnd": function() {}};

window.lift.extend(lift_settings,window.liftJQuery);

window.lift.init(lift_settings);

LiftRules.autoIncludeComet =  {
  (session: LiftSession) => false
}

LiftRules.autoIncludeAjaxCalc.default.set(
  () => () => (session: LiftSession) => false
)

LiftRules.javaScriptSettings.request.set(() => () => Empty)

LiftRules.enableContainerSessions = false

Hm, this is definitely an issue. Is this happening in the latest 3.0 milestone? 3.0-M2,

amongst other things, suffers from some security vulnerabilities related to XML parsing.

Thanks,

Antonio

Hi Antonio,

Just tried 3.0-M6 for Scala 2.11 but I've got the exact same problem. The following script is still being loaded.

var lift_settings = {"liftPath": "/lift", "ajaxRetryCount": 3, "ajaxPostTimeout": 5000, "gcPollingInterval": 75000, "gcFailureRetryTimeout": 15000, "cometGetTimeout": 140000, "cometFailureRetryTimeout": 10000, "cometServer": null, "logError": function(msg) {lift.logError(msg);}, "ajaxOnFailure": function() {alert("The server cannot be contacted at this time");}, "ajaxOnStart": function() {}, "ajaxOnEnd": function() {}};

window.lift.extend(lift_settings,window.liftJQuery);

window.lift.init(lift_settings);

Got it. Please file a bug (https://github.com/lift/framework/issues) and link back here.

We'll have a look as soon as we can!

Thanks,

Antonio
