Description

Originally by @jdahlstrom


AbstractCommunicationManager contains utility methods that do not depend on ACM state. These should be moved to an Util class if they don't seem to fit anywhere else.

  • encodeState
  • getStreamVariableTargetUrl
  • getConnector (depends on DnD service; see https://github.com/vaadin/framework/issues/3704)
  • handleConnectorRelatedException
  • isConnectorVisibleToClient
  • isComponentVisibleToClient
  • getDirtyVisibleConnectors (should be removed)

Research direction

Start by reading AbstractCommunicationManager and tracing the listed methods to confirm which ones use manager state. Review issue 3704 for the getConnector dependency, then move suitable utilities to an appropriate Util class and remove getDirtyVisibleConnectors; done means the methods no longer inappropriately depend on ACM state.
