Well.. if we have other types of jobs.. can we do something like
<definitions> ... <job class="x.y.z.Quartz"....> <job class="a.b.c.Marble"....> ... </definitions> thanks asankha Paul Fremantle wrote:
Do you envisage we will have other kinds of Startup or should we pull the pluggability for that? Paul On 9/20/07, Asankha C.

Well.. when we finalized the config language syntax, we had a top level "definitions" and then one or more "proxy", "sequence", "endpoint" etc definitions. So I guess the "job" definitions should be handled the same for consistency. asankha On 9/20/07, Ruwan Linton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi all, For the moment the configuration for the jobs seems to be like following; <definitions> <startup> <job ...../>* </startup> ...... </definitions> The <startup> element is wrapping all the jobs. With compared to other elements in the configuration like <sequence>, <endpoint> and all they are top level elements even mediators can appear in the top level in which case that collection is treated as the main sequence. So I propose to bring the <jobs> element to the top level as follows; <definitions> <registry ..../>? <proxy .../>* <sequence .../>* <endpoint ..../>* <job .../>* <localEntry .../>* (mediator)* </definitions> If we do have multiple types of jobs then we can let the FactoryFinder to handle that. Is there any particular reason that I am missing here? If not shall we bring these jobs to the top level before 1.1 release?
