Maybe I am missing something important (as I don't follow the mentioned DCI discussions), but I get the feeling that this touches on the long-ago idea of "abilities". The indirection of "Role Requirements" to "Mixin Implementations". The GutFeeling says that "Ability" and "Roles" are closely linked, and it wouldn't surprise me if we can manage to get a break-through on this subject as well, if we take away the noise and look at what really is the core issue.
Agree. As outlined in my previous post, I think we should simply add .withRoles() to the entitydeclaration, and the interfaces declared there becomes additional interfaces on the proxy for the composite.
So, do you have a pointer to the discussion in question?
It's in the object-composition Yahoo group: http://groups.google.com/group/object-composition?hl=en Thread is "*WHO* adds Roles?", started by me. regards, Rickard _______________________________________________ qi4j-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ops4j.org/mailman/listinfo/qi4j-dev
