Managing a service (like sending a ping message) is generic requirement or a specific requirement, as I can see it is very specific requirement. So Im not that much like to change the MR api to cope with requirement. > Since the method is added to the AbstractMessageReceiver it will not > break the existing implementations of the MessageReceiver interface. > This ping method can be used to check real status of the services, > whether they are up and running.

So , how come that response to ping request if it is in such a position :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
