A question

I have a store in top window, and I passed store into an iframe which is same origin.

when I change store properties in top window, my React component within iframe do not update.

Please create a small test case using codesandbox.io. You'll probably have to create 2 sandboxes for your issue.

@mattruby I've created two pages with codesandbox.io, this is parent page and this is iframed page . But iframed page does not work as expected. maybe something went wrong in such situation.

in top page, I've expose mobx and store objects to top, so that I can access them within iframe.

in iframed page, I try to access two mobx.autorun function: one is just import {autorun} from mobx, the second is window.top.mobx.autorun from top window.

when I update store in top page, only the second autorun called.

@sophister it is because you are using two different instances of MobX, which both have their own internal state. Instead of having mobx as a dependency in the framed page, you should pass mobx from the parent to the framed page (not that this is possible only if they are on the same domain, otherwise browser security will prevent this)

@umbrellaZwl You need to elaborate on what you have tried and did not work for you. Also, please don't comment on old & closed issues as only a few people will see that. Open a new issue with all details of your problem.
