Goal

The thread and mention lists kept the previous user's data after a logout or a switch to another user. The thread list also stopped working altogether: it never reloaded for the next user.

Part of AND-1667.

Implementation

  • ThreadListController and MentionListController (shared by Compose and XML) reset when the user session ends, using userSessionEnds() from Clear the channel list and message search when the user logs out or another user connects #6861, and reload once the next user is connected.
  • The thread list controller ran in the client's per-user scope, which disconnect cancels. It now has its own scope, cancelled by the view models through a new close(), and runs one task at a time so the reset can't land after the next user's threads.
  • The mention list handles each result inside a cancellable step, so a result from a session that ended isn't added to the reset list.
  • New internal ClientState.awaitConnectedUser(), used by the mention list and SearchViewModel, which now report an error instead of crashing when no user is connected.

Testing

  • ThreadListControllerTest and MentionListControllerTest cover a logout, a switch, the same user reconnecting, a mention result in flight at logout, no connected user, and close().
  • On an emulator, in the Compose sample's Threads tab: the previous user's 10 threads clear at logout and the next user's 9 threads load. On develop, the previous user's 10 threads stayed after the switch.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved mention and thread loading during logout and reconnection, ensuring stale results are cleared and refreshed appropriately.
    • Searches now wait for a connected user and return a handled error when no user is available.
    • Cancelled outdated mention searches when a newer request begins.
    • Improved thread controller cleanup when its associated view model is cleared.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for logout, reconnection, connection readiness, stale results, search failures, and controller cleanup.

📝 Walkthrough

Thread controllers now use a controller-owned child scope and reset thread state when a user session ends. Mention loading and message search wait for a connected user through a shared client-state extension. Thread list ViewModels pass their controllers to the ViewModel superclass, and tests verify that clearing a ViewModel store closes the controller.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 1cacd

A narrowly timed logout can restore old mention results or a pagination token. The change is otherwise mergeable with this race addressed or explicitly accepted.

A rabbit watched the threads go by,
Then saw the user’s state draw nigh.
Old searches paused as new ones came,
And closing stores shut scopes the same.
“All tidy now,” the rabbit said,
And hopped to sleep inside its bed.

- Around line 79-93: Make the state transition used by loadMore() atomic or
serialize it with the userSessionEnds() reset so a stale snapshot cannot restore
the previous user’s mentions or nextPage. Update the relevant loadMore and
session-reset state handling while preserving the reset to MentionListState()
and subsequent load request.
