[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of POJO Server] - Moving forward with the profile service mgmt api

[charles.crouch@jboss.com]

In the JBAS5 call this morning Adrian and I discussed how best we could proceed with fleshing out/writing tests for the management aspects of the profile service in parallel with Adrian developing the new managed object api and implementation. The conclusion that we came to was that the interface to Adrian's new managed objects would look quite similar to the ManagedObject/PropertyInfo interfaces we currently have. Therefore it should be possible to push ahead and build out the api's the profile service needs using the existing interfaces, and then refactor them when Adrian has committed his revised version. It should also be feasible to do the same with testcases, i.e. we write tests now and try to mock up/stub out interfaces that we require to get the tests going then come back and refactor later. 

There is definitely going to be rework needed when Adrians stuff lands but at least this approach should enable forward progress to be made in related areas in the meantime.  The plan is in the JBAS5 call next week for Adrian to provide an estimate on when the new managed object api and impl would be available.

Scott, does this approach make sense too you? Is it something you can push ahead with?

Thanks
