hi, i started a new thread because the other (server code shared with clients) became quite long. as i already told, i've been able to start a merlin DefaultKernel which then loads and starts some services (components?). up to now i have not found a way to access those services from outside of the kernel/container. although i think there should be a clean (merlin) solution, i would like to know what you think about the following work-around:
i could create a registry map before starting the kernel and pass a handle via the context to the components. on start/stop they could register/deregister with that registry. so that the outside world has access to the running components in the container. does that sound too awful and is there a more merlin way? /eike --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
