If I do come up with something, I will surely donate it. But first things first. I've downloaded most of avalon in bits and pieces, some source some binary, and it takes a bit of puzzle work to get the pieces to work together because of all the refactoring that going on. I've just downloaded the altrmi source for the examples and wanted to use the examples with the binary altrmi jars I got with cornerstone binary. does'nt work because the example use a altrmi.client.impl.callback package which is not in the binary distribution.... Anyway, my question is, what's the best strategy at this point to get one working copy of the whole avalon project including subprojects?

Methods getReadLock() , getWriteLock(), releaseReadLock() could be put in an interface and used in an implementation that it transported over the wire. AltRMI in itself is possibly too simple for your purposes. You and Pete drifted off in to high computing concepts in your mails (and lost me). AltRMI is quite benign in many ways as it has a distrubuted gabage collection mechanism that does not at present rely of formal reservation or leasing (it is transparent). As for mods to AltRMI, I'd prefer to see them donated back if they are generic enough :-) - Paul -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
