Hi Sylvain
How would that work with a Browser Front End? I have been assuming that calls should go from the from the front end to the BO not vice versa. If the BO starts calling methods in the Front End then it seems to me you have a problem because what if someone uses Excel as the front end etc. The BO has no control over what front end is used so I have been avoiding any calls from the BO to the front end.
Thanks
Simon
>In the message I was referring to, the BO does not update the user interface. It only call a method in the user interface layer who does the actual update of the status bar. So the separation between the user interface and the BO is not broken.
