Just a though,t but maybe we are trying to be too generic in finding a single interface that meets all needs. We have a plugin loader (Mono.addins) that can quite easily load different plugin types. So by using the IApplicationPlugin system, we can have them also loading other plugin types.
If basically we are saying that we want two different Module/Interface registeries (Global and Scene), then there is no reason that as long as all the plugins only register interfaces with those registeries why we can't have the multiple plugin types. So we have a type (and loader) that is able to register event handlers so it can be informed about scenes. And we a loader that can load the modules from the Grid servers directly. The loaders would be minor things basically just using PluginLoader to load the plugins. We could say this increases the complexity, but I actually think by having initialisation interfaces that are right for the task that the modules are going to do makes sense. --- On Thu, 26/2/09, Melanie <[email protected]> wrote: From: Melanie <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Opensim-dev] Comms Manager To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, 26 February, 2009, 12:36 PM I don't think Grid and Asset modules need to load into region servers, and vice versa. At least not by the same interface. That interchangeability makes other things that are useful almost impossibly complex.
