[jboss-dev-forums] [Design the new POJO MicroContainer] - Automatic Scoped Kernels - A good idea

Given Ales's latest issue/hack, I'm beginning to wonder whether the automatic construction of scoped kernels is really such a good idea. For ease of use it probably is, but making it work is requiring too many hacks and I have a feeling that Ales is doing it wrong anyway or has at least misunderstood part of it (Given some of the problems he is reporting). The alternate approach would be to move the scoping of kernels to the deployers. i.e. The MC can support scoped kernels but you have to use an api to configure them. The deployment chain would then look something like: 1) Parsing as now (for POJOs - BeanDeployer) 2) ClassLoading deployer (as now or replaced with OSGi style) 3) Component Deployer (for POJOs KernelDeploymentDeployer) 4) Scoping Deployer (NEW looks at BeanMetaData and creates ScopedKernel) 5) Real Deployer (as now BeanMetaDataDeployer - but deploys into ScopedKernel) This gives a cleaner api and probably makes it easier to override scoping rules. The downside is that you don't get scoping out of the box, you either have to use the deployers or write your own scoping config code.
