In your >case it might be "locating a ContextAwareService", but maybe resource >types do not apply for that case. this is an interesting concept, i need to think more about it if this could be used for my use cases as well. currently i'm thinking selecting on base of resource types would match not all of them, e.g. a SPI for configuring a "cross-cutting concern" which is used by multiple components, using resource types from a mix of applications and central libraries - but for all of them a tenant-specific implementation should be choosen. but it makes definitely sense to try to align these related approaches, perhaps we find a common solution. maybe we will find some time on the adaptTo for further brainstorming. stefan
