All that was required was to extend the dispatch api to have the name of the target and add that to the kernel bus api. e.g. | /** | * Invoke method / operation | * | * @param name the name of the target | * @param methodName method name | * @param parameters parameter values | * @param signature method's parameter types / signatures | * @return invocation's return object | * @throws Throwable for any error | */ | Object invoke(Object name, String methodName, Object parameters[], String[] signature) throws Throwable; | A bus is just the same api as a single context with the target found by looking up the name in a registry. The name being the extra parameter. The rest of the api you've created, is just useless object construction and irrelevant implement details. NOTE: Even the joinpoint stuff in the existing KernelBus is irrelevant. It is legacy from when I was experimenting with AOP/POJO and JMX implementing the Joinpoint api. The DispatchContext replaced this. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4087183#...
