The interface UUID is changed if one method is removed or changes its parameters. Normally the UUID is not changed if only new methods are added but even in that case it might be possible that we change the UUID. The UUIDs are never changed when staying on one branch. Keep in mind that trunk is the development tree. Kind regards, Frank -- ORACLE Deutschland B.V. & Co. KG Dr.-Ing.
