public class Dispatch
extends Object

Introduction

Dispatch is the only Tapestry Page object, and it is responsible for three tasks:

• Resource routing, mostly URL parsing according to some basic rules, but also looking for special cases.
• Security, particularly focusing on Single Sign-On.
• File upload handling and storage. Files need to grabbed from the Tapestry framework and moved into our storage and the transformation tool chain.
