I'm new to the avalon framework. Please bear with me.
I'm thinking of using merlin2 to build an application
with the following
services/components:
0. application
1. model
2. controller
3. view
An application container is also created to manage
these components. For a
standalone application, these components all reside in
the container. In other
scenarios, the view part will be split from the
model/controller part, ie, they
will stay in separate containers. This means another
component, eventsysem,
will be used by the controller and the view to
communicate with each other.
I do expect various implementations of these
components are used for different
scenarios.
This is the skeleton of the startup.xml file:
<kernel>
...
<component name="es" class="DefaultEventSystem"
activation="startup">
</component>
<container name="ac" class="ApplicationContainer">
<component name="controller"
class="DefaultController"
enabled="true"
activation="true">
</component>
<component name="model"
class="DefaultModel"
enabled="true"
activation="true">
</component>
<component name="view"
class="DefaultView"
enabled="true"
activation="true">
</component>
</container>
...
</kernel>
Here are some of my questions.
1. It appears that I need to first start the
eventsystem in the root container,
ie, outside of the application container. Am I on
the right track?
2. How do I pass the eventsystem to the application,
as a context,
configuration, or parameter? Or should the
eventsystem be a dependency of
the application?
3. How do I configure a non-default component,
preferrably outside the
startup.xml file?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Albert
