Inter component communication

ssharma

I want to know if inter-component communication at runtime is possible when pages (containing components) are deployed on LiveSite/Sitepublisher.

Is there any provision in the runtime engine whereby components on the same page are able to reference each other. This will allow us to expose various small applications as components to the site designer.

Example:
As an example, say we have an article page which contains an "Article component" and an "Email-a-friend" component.

The Email-a-friend component would require the article_id, title, author details etc of the article for constructing the email message.

not directly. there is no guaranteed order of component execution. you could use controllers to seed information in the request context that components could share.
