I could argue that you don't really know what you want :) - binding URIs, I'd leave that one out as configuring binding endpoint addresses is not really wiring. Thoughts? -- Jean-Sebastien

I wanted to know what other forms are exactly needed! In the spec there are 7. 1.Through a value specified in the @target attribute of the reference element 2.Through a target URI specified in the @uri attribute of a binding element which is a child of the reference element 3.Through the setting of one or more values for binding-specific attributes and/or child elements of a binding element that is a child of the reference element 4.Through the specification of @autowire="true" for the reference (or through inheritance of that value from the component or composite containing the reference) 5.Through the specification of @wiredByImpl="true" for the reference 6.Through the promotion of a component reference by a composite reference of the composite containing the component (the target service is then identified by the configuration of the composite reference) 7.Through the presence of a element which has the reference specified in its @source attribute. > - I leave out @wiredByImpl since there is no implementation type that does > this at the moment > > > Yours, Mike. > -- Best Regards, Nirmal C.S.Nirmal J.

Which forms of reference specification are you dealing with at the moment? The basic ones are: o @target parameter o @autowire o promotion (and thus targeting at a higher level) o element(s) o binding with a specified target URI - I leave out @wiredByImpl since there is no implementation type that does this at the moment Yours, Mike.
Possible ways to specify target service for a reference
Hi All, As you know, I'm in the process of creating composite diagram automatically for a given composite XML. I have a question, where I need your input. According to the spec there are many ways that one could specify a target service for a reference [1]. I am wondering whether I've to consider all of those options? Thanks. PS: Herewith I've attached a sample image generated by the tool which is still not fully complete! I am using Apache Batiks to create SVG document, and I am implementing my own layout algorithm.
