I have app with Vaadin 7.
In one view ( i.e. implements com.vaadin.navigator.View) I have a table with Filtering Table (i.e. org.tepi.filtertable.FilterTable)
https://vaadin.com/directory/component/filteringtable and applies a filter. Go to another view, then go back to the Filtering Table view and I would like this filter to be remembered.
That is why in View interface there is the “enter” method you can override. You need to maintain the view configuration information somewhere and in enter you can reconstruct your state. In Vaadin 8 we have added beforeLeave method in View interface, which makes it easier to collect and store some data before leaving the view.
