No. Components are building blocks of a system that allows you to design in a loosely coupled, yet intelligent way. Components are often "services" (components that perform a specific task). Architectures like EJBs, and in particular the Entity Beans have done damage to the credibility and design of components. In Entity Beans, composition is the main design patterns. However, the world is not Entity Beans. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
