Dependencies based on service events
------------------------------------

         Key: JBMICROCONT-2
         URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBMICROCONT-2
     Project: JBoss MicroContainer
        Type: Feature Request
    Reporter: Scott M Stark


The current state based dependency mechanism does not allow for dependencies on 
service specific events. Such a dependency is really a dependency on a service 
specific state change that happens to be signalled by a jmx notification for 
example. A common scenario is service A waiting for the initial startup of the 
jboss server as indicated by a jmx notification. This can be expanded to a 
service B which needs to know when service A has completed its post jboss 
server startup activity. Since service may not be explicitly coded with state 
machines in mind, it would be good if the container framework allowed for an 
externalized description of an extended state machine with the new states 
beyond the normal service lifecycle described in terms of the events that 
result in the exteneded state transitions (jmx events, method invocations, 
etc.). Dependencies on the extended state diagram could then be expressed. 
Certainly a service should be able to manifestly describe its extended state 
diagram as part of its deployment.
