Tom,
Thanks for your reply.
In the end it boils down to the age old question: what is first chicken or the egg? Process importing components or components importing process.
Let's take the approach of process importing components - chicken first. Given the current process fragment:
I could change it to:
-----------
import ..\sca\ConsumerFacade.composite
...
<action sca-component-reference="RequestParser"/>
-----------
And done! Isn't this a cleaner separation of process and assmbly responsibility? With a bit more work to integrate an sca tuscany runtime and jpdl runtime - there is so much to gain! JPDL can tap into any (almost any - sca component types are constantly growing ...) type of components defined in sca. The component impls would also implement ActionHandler - easy right?
The SCA api is straight forward:
// line below can be triggered by the above
// "import ..\sca\ConsumerFacade.composite" statment
scaDomain = SCADomain.newInstance("ConsumerFacade.composite");
// line below is triggered when you need the action to be executed
requestParserService = scaDomain.getService(RequestParserImpl.class, "RequstParserComponent");
So what is left?
1. Change jpdl schema to allow:
<action sca-component-reference="RequestParser"/>
2. Make some room in jpdl api to allow references to scaDomain.getService(...) calls.
I would be glad to contribute some time to the above.
Regards,
Radu Marian
