Both are beneficial. Useful elements from context; data: - names (including component, partition and application) - classloader(s) - base deployment directory (potentially work directory aswell) services: - access to input streams of resources stored in deployment package. - access to proxying/interceptor chains for current block and ability to construct new chains for objects you want to pass around - access to "manager" element for current application or parts of current application However the distinction between data and services may be artificial because any data element can be represented as a service (the service being the thing that provides data elements). -- Cheers, Peter Donald *-------------------------------------------------* | An eye for eye only ends up making the whole | | world blind. - Gandhi | *-------------------------------------------------* -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
