Hi,
I admit, that I'm absolute newbie, but after talking with all the local
tech-heads, I was advised to post this question on this maillist. Currently
my company is using the bea weblogic application server, but we have
developed the need, to have a special kind of container, to host a kind of
pluggable adapters. Instead of building such a container from scrap, I
would like create a generic container, which:
-deploys Components in the J2EE-usual way
-creates an enviroment for the running Components
-creates an administration interface for the Enviroment and its components
The Enviroment itself should not be implemented in the
"Container-Framework". Yet there should be a set of Abstract Classes, that
allow an Enviroment to be plugged into the Container as desired. The
"Enviroment-Plugin" then processes the deployment XML-documents on a rel.
high level of logic (all the lowlevel stuff should be managed by the
"Container-Framework").
The administration interface could be implemented in a similar way.
Such a configurable Container System could replace the current core
EJB-Container, and allow JBoss to host just about any kind of Component out
there (even the ones to come).Further I would think a EJB-Interface could be
designed to allow the hosting of several containers on one system (which
even would not have to be a JBoss Application Server).
Being able to use well working Core Elements of the JBoss-Project as
peripherial Elements on current professional systems, would allow new and
more conservative developers to "snoop in" JBoss, with out the risk of a
complete failure, and probably convince them to use more of the projects, or
even completly swapping the core in favour of you -us?- .
My questions:
-would it be reasonable to modify the current container?
-is such a modificication desired by the community?
Thanx a lot for your open ear (-or eyes ;^)).
I'm looking forward to your feedback.
