Description David Strupl 2002-02-14 15:10:10 UTC
Currently all calls to lookup wait for the result. However you can listen on the
result changes so it could be beneficial if you could just perform the query and
attach a listener without blocking.
Comment 1 David Strupl 2002-02-14 15:12:06 UTC
ErrorManager.DelegatingErrorManager can benefit from this enhancement.
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2002-02-25 15:01:10 UTC
Suggesting to enhance Lookup.Template with a new field that would
identify a "non-blocking" template. If the "non-blocking" mode is
started AbstractLookup & ProxyLookup would not call beforeLookup (..)
methods when returning results.

Changed owner David S. -> David K.
Comment 6 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-05-05 12:24:05 UTC
Better make the default call faster - e.g. not wait for FolderLookup.
