Just for my understanding:
Is the context (runtime/environment) information used by the pipeline
itself, or only by the pipeline components? From an SoC point of view
I'd assume that the pipeline implementation is independent from the
execution environment. I'd imagine it to handle only pipelining aspects:
* wiring components together
* passing events
* caching
* … ?
I agree here. Thanks Andreas for reminding me my own thoughts (that are similar to yours) that I had
at ApacheCon when Reinhard was explaining Corona's design.
Now I can join the discussion. :-)
If this is the case, wouldn't it be more appropriate to pass the context
information to the pipeline components without bothering the pipeline
object itself? Or is it intended that the pipeline is seen as a black
box after it has been set up, to simplify the parameterization of all
its components?
Even if it's the case, should be this "black box" pipeline just one of the possible implementations?
Then it would be a pipeline implementation that sets up components and passes what's needed. In some
cases that would make a perfect sense.
