JBoss development, A new message was posted in the thread "Optimizing aop lifecycle": http://community.jboss.org/message/518420#518420 Author : Ales Justin Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/alesj Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- No. :-) That is useless impl detail, that shouldn't be part of BAA.   This is what I would do (1) expose Default/Common BAA as a bean, with callbacks on add/remove plugin (we might/should already be doing this) (2) re-write <lifecycle-x> element to BeanMetaDataFactory handling to do config checks, and then produce LifecycleAnnotationPlugin bean   This way (1) will pick up (2), w/o any need of knowing add/remove plugin impl detail --> less code as you don't need that last few lines; start, stop, getBAA. ;-) -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/518420#518420
