Hi,

I have a question about when references are bound...

I have a composite which consists of four components, one ReplicaManager and 
three Replicas. The manager promotes a single service. The replicas are bound 
to the manager with a single reference. eg.

<reference name="children" multiplicity="1..*" target="Replica1 Replica2 
Replica3"/>

On the first call to the service the manager's 'children' property is 
successfully populated with an array of Replicas. However, it appears that this 
property is repopulated on every call to the manager's service. 

Is the manager re-initialised on every call, or are the references rebound? 
Is there a way to specify that a reference is bound on initialisation only?

Thanks,

Nick May
