[Seaside] Serving files from within Seaside

[jtuchel]

Hi there,

I know people consider serving files a job that should be handled by a
"real" http server rather than Seaside. In most cases, esp. for static
resources that can be accessed by the public, that is absolutely the case.

But I need to serve files in a callback. The files are being partly
calculated and read from a DB and should be available for download by
clicking on a link.

I've been looking into WAFileLibrary and WAFileHandler, but am not sure
where to start.

What I want to do is something like:

html anchor
  callback: [self calculateChartAndServeIt]
  with: 'Download full chart'.

I know I will have to respond:, but can I do that in a callback?

Joachim
