Hello Andre,
That's a good point, we'll consider something like this in the future, though it won't happen right away for sure.
If you could provide a design doc and/or the reqd source code patches that would be excellent, I would think patches would be likely to find their way into future distributions as long as it doesn't break existing test cases.
Thanks,
Nirmal.

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: [wsif] -- support for factory pattern for Java services? |
As far as I can tell, in the case of a service being a JavaBean, the
classname of this bean is defined in the bindings. The code uses this
classname directly to instantiate an instance of this object, using
Class.newInstance(). Is there any chance (or plan) to support a level of
indirection for this? Assume I want to retrieve this instance from another
place before invoking a service request on it. Or I want to let a factory
instantiate it. For EJBs, the fact that they are retrieved through naming
gives me additional flexibility, for JavaBeans it seems pretty hardcoded.
