My suggestion would be to use JNDI for this purpose, and to have a JNDI context containing the metrics. ../metrics/protocols/SMTP/.. An SNMP service would expose an SNMP protocol view of the information in the metrics context. A component would get its metrics context and interact with the beans that we'll probably store there. So long as we have a suitably common interface, the rest is automagic. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
