Hello
Does Merlin has/specifies any mechanism for communication among different JVMs?
Consider the following two examples:
1. How does Component A in JVM1 find ServiceB in JVM2? 2. How does an event/message produced by ServiceB in JVM2 sent to ComponentA in JVM1?
The merlin core does not define a mechanisms for inter-JVM communications. This requires two additions:
(a) component instance identity management (b) a remoting facility
Both are possible - but require either a custom runtime or a plug-in facility to handle the identity/transport semantics. I've done this sort of thing in the past using IIOP - basically a servant activator that is a component that handles a family of identifiable components. In due course I expect some aspects of this work to be folded into the Merlin core (in particular the identity management) and that distribution transport will be abstracted out to a remoting facility.
Stephen.
Best Regards
