ISSUE-33: Response to \"Start\" event from a component that\'s already started

Response to \"Start\" event from a component that\'s already started

State:
CLOSED
Product:
MMI Architecture
Raised by:
Deborah Dahl
Opened on:
2007-02-19
Description:
If a modality component which has already started receives a new Start event
before it\'s finished, what should be the appropriate behavior? There are at
least 3 possibilities:
1. send back an error (presumably something like \"status = failure\", \"errorinfo
= \'already started\'\" in the StartResponse)
2. restart (with either new content or restart previous content if there\'s no
new content, send back \"status = success\" in StartResponse)
3. ignore (that is, send back a StartResponse with \"status = \'success\'\", and
continue doing whatever it was doing before the new Start event).

Related notes:

the fourth option is not to specify what happens, it's just platform-specific.

(from f2f) We agree on option 2. Send back the regular startResponse message. It should implicitly stop the previous running action.
