Body:
As long as the *Selector interface is part of Avalon Framework, it must be supported.
Please note that there is a huge difference between supported and required. The
question then becomes what semantics do we want to use to know that we have a Selector
that provides components of the type we want for the service interface we have.
In ECM, and consequently in Fortress, appending the name "Selector" to the key was an
acceptable practice to guaranteeing that the selector was for the type needed. In
Merlin, and consequently the future, how is this going to be guaranteed? Will it
require a change to the meta info to know if we want the key accessed as a selector?
Perhaps that might be the best solution.
But as long as the selector is part of framework it must be supported.

Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: EXLBR-4
Summary: resolution of components using /Selector semantics
Type: Bug
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Major
Project: Avalon Excalibur
Assignee:
Reporter: Stephen McConnell
Created: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 7:38 AM
Updated: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 7:53 AM
Description:
Involves sorting out where /Selector is really required as opposed to factoring out
the use of /Selector in favor of an explicit selection services (which in turn can be
implemented with a facility). Some initial actions toward this objective are in place
under the merlin/facilities/finder subproject.
