so i did it, but for every component i will add, i have to edit the source code from the components interface to set a key for the new dependency. it would be nice to be independent from the source code and only to edit the block.xml by adding a new component using perhaps three components from the second interface. can i get several objects from the servicemanager with a lookup when they have the same key? can they have the same key?
They don't have the same key. What you specify in the source code is just a default. If you declare the component with a name, this will be it's name, not the one specified in the code (xinfo). The same goes for dependencies:
<component name="c3" class="MyService"/>
<component name="c4" class="MyService"/>
<component name="c2" class="MyComponent">
<dependencies>
<dependency key="dep1" source="c3"/>
<dependency key="dep2" source="c4"/>
</dependencies>
</component>Now, c2 will find c3 as dep1 and c4 as dep2 in the ServiceManager, regardless of what name you specified in the source code of MyService.
