Re: [cgiapp] get_previous_runmode() ?

[suppressed]

It sounds to me like you have a slight misunderstanding of how the runmode
is defined.

When the C::A request is launched, the runmode parameter is the runmode
that the client is requesting to go to, not the runmode it is coming from.
For example, if you have two paths into runmode C from runmodes A or B
(such as)...

A--+
   |
   +-->C
   |
B--+

... then when you are entering runmode C, C::A does not know if you came
from runmode A, runmode B, or some other run mode FOO, unless the client
tells it where it came from (hidden parameters, REFERER, cookie, or some
other method - all client provided).  C::A only knows that it is going into
runmode C.

If I am way off base, then so be it, and prune this branch of the
conversation :)

wouldn't it be the same as to provide the current runmode?
