Fractal would be great :-) There are a lot of similarities with SCA
and it would be cool to bring the two architectures together.
As a starting point, yes I think the Spring container would be the
closest. As you've figured, it does two things:
1) it allows a Spring application context to act as the
implementation of an SCA component - this allows users to bring
existing Spring applications into an SCA assembly
2) it allows SCA components to act as Spring beans so that users can
use services over SCA from their applications
which sounds like it matches your two options as well.
trunk is in a bit of a churn at this moment as we are migrating from
the SCA 0.95 to 1.0 level so I would suggest starting from a M2
baseline. There's enough to do figuring out the integration without
tracking HEAD :-) The tag for M2 is here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/tags/java/sca/1.0-
incubator-M2/
and the Spring module is here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/tags/java/sca/1.0-
incubator-M2/services/containers/container.spring/
To build either of these should build, just check it out and run "mvn"
To bring into Eclipse, try "mvn -Peclipse eclipse:eclipse" but YMMV
I'll add a module in the sandbox for fractal.

What language are you looking to support?
i'm looking to provide support to fractal
<http://fractal.objectweb.org>architectures.
It should be straightoward to provide a new container type (a fractal
namespace, loader, builders, and so on), as demonstrated with the JS
example..once I get the sca-extension module compiling.
Then, i'm willing to contribute a new binding mechanism to
'fractalize' sca
components ..but I have to discuss still this with my team.
If I had to say which of the already available extensions look more
similar
to the one I'm working on, i'd say that Spring is the most
promising one: i
imagine that extension let a spring context to be sca-compliant,
'wrapping'
it with sca composites.
So my work is in 2 directions at same time: embed fractal into sca/
tuscany,
and be able to bind (in a general sense) sca-composites through
fractal-binding extension..
Here any suggestion is very welcome,
ciao,
Valerio
