I'm curious if its possible (speaking in terms of XML semantics) to allow an element to defined for a service and then over-riden by a later instance.
An example would be to define a method_context within the service element, then to create multiple instance, only one of which uses a different method_context which would be defined within the instance element to effectively "over-ride" the (for lack of a better term) global definition. Based on my testing, as it stands now, anything that will differ between instances must be defined within each instance locally and not "shared" globally for the service. Being able to do this seems more intuitive to me, but maybe isn't good style. I'm not sure. Just an idea. benr. This message posted from opensolaris.org
