[jboss-dev-forums] [Design the new POJO MicroContainer] - AbstractManagedObjectFactory needs to be refactored

The current org.jboss.managed.plugins.factory.AbstractManagedObjectFactory has too much going on to be reusable. In particular, the InstanceClassFactory(Serializable), ManagedObjectPopulator(Serializable) parameterized interfaces cannot be changed by subclasses, for example, this cannot be done: | public class LocalDSInstanceClassFactory extends AbstractManagedObjectFactory | implements InstanceClassFactory<LocalDataSourceDeploymentMetaData> | { | ... | } | ... | ManagedObjectFactory mof = ManagedObjectFactory.getInstance(); | LocalDSInstanceClassFactory icf = new LocalDSInstanceClassFactory(); | mof.setInstanceClassFactory(LocalDataSourceDeploymentMetaData.class, icf); | Either the AbstractManagedObjectFactory needs to keep the interface paramterization, or the default implementations need to be plugins with different base classes. I'm working on the latter local to the jbossas/connector project to validate what works. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4127111#...
