Meeraj, I got the JXTA working for sending messages. However, what I did was just finding the error and patching it, so I just modified a line of code and got to know that the problem was not on the dissemination of messages by JXTA but on the peer name being used to dispatch the name to.
So, I saw that the problem was that the sender of the message was trying to send a msg to a peer called "slave" (as seeing in the following exception that was being displayed on the browser after pressing the "Contribute SCDL" button): org.apache.tuscany.spi.services.discovery.DiscoveryException: Unrecognized runtime slave What I did was just commenting a line of code out and hardcoding the name of the runtime in the JxtaDiscoveryService class (when the runtime is registering itself): /** * Configures the platform. * */ private void configure() throws DiscoveryException { try { //String runtimeId = getRuntimeInfo().getRuntimeId(); String runtimeId = "slave"; configurator.setName(runtimeId); configurator.setHome(new File(runtimeId)); if (configurator.exists()) { File pc = new File(configurator.getHome(), "PlatformConfig"); configurator.load(pc.toURI()); configurator.save(); } else { configurator.save(); } } catch (IOException ex) { throw new DiscoveryException(ex); } catch (CertificateException ex) { throw new DiscoveryException(ex); } } After doing that, the SCDL was successfully processed. So, as you can see, the problem was not completely solved (the runtimeId is hardcoded). But, at least I found why the messages were not being delivered. Now, I was trying to understand where the target name comes wrong from and I think the problem could be that the AssemblyServiceImpl class is setting the wrong id in the include method: ..... // create physical wire definitions for (ComponentDefinition<?> child : type.getDeclaredComponents().values()) { URI id = child.getRuntimeId() ..... Since, it finally invokes the marshallAndSend(id, context), which in turn invokes the discoveryService.sendMessage(id.toASCIIString(), pcsReader) method, which ends up in an invocation to JxtaDiscoveryService.sendMessage(...) with the wrong runtimeId (i.e.; slave) So, as you can see, it seems that the problem comes from some place outside of the scope of JXTA and I am not experienced enough to deal with such issue. Do you have any idea where the "slave" id is being wrongly set?

Tuscany code structure is roughly organized into kernel, runtime, services and extensions. There are other modules like plugins, console etc, which are not relavant in the context of this discussion. There is also a contrib module, where we keep artifacts that are not ready to go, it is important in the context of this discussion because the JXTA impl is currently in contrib, because of some issues we are investigating with some patented code with BouncyCastle. tuscany-spi in kernel, contains the key model classes and service provider interfaces for Tuscany. Some of these are implemented by core in kernel and some of them are implemented outside kernel. DiscoveryService is an SPI defined in tuscany-spi that is used by the runtime fabric for enabling communication between multiple profiles participating in a logical SCA domain. A profile is basically a group of services, both system and user, that are managed together. Multiple profiles make up a logical SCA domain. You can run profiles in the same VM or different VMs. Discovery service provides basically one method, 1. Targeted delivery of a message to a given profile. However, the JXTA impl, also provides a listener for receiving those messages and so does the JMS impl. JMS is not a real option for us, as long term we want to enable multi-fabric profiles in the same domain, Java and C++ for example. This is where JXTA fits in nicely. Profile names are important, as the JXTA implementation of the discovery service uses the profile names as logical endpoints and use them to map to JXTA peer ids. The JXTA implementation uses a peer group specific to the domain in which the profile is participating. The domain name is defined in /etc/runtime.properties of the profile. We do that to restrict communication between the profiles only in the same domain. We use PDP (Peer Discovery Protocol), for maintaining a view of all profiles available in the domain and PRP (Peer Rsolver Protocol) for sending directed messages. PDP seems to work fine, however, PRP is not delivering the messages. I have posted this on the JXTA list and I can forward you the emails if you want (I will forward it to this list) Here are the key areas you can look at, /java/sca/kernel/tuscany-spi: For the discovery service abstractions. /java/sca/kernel/core: Usage patterns for discovery service /java/sca/contrib/discovery/jxta: The JXTA impl of discovery /java/sca/runtime/standalone/server.start: The basic shell for starting a tuscany server standlone /java/sca/console: For a browser based console (it is pretty minimal now) /java/distribution/sca/demo: A maven assembly for creating an installation image for three feedrated profiles master, slave1 and slave2. In the src/profile directory you will find the teh different profiles and their system SCDLs. Currentlly, they use JMS, however, I have commented component definitions for JXTA. you can start all three profiles in one vm using java -jar server.start.jar master slave1 slave2 or java -Dtuscany.adminPort-2000 -jar server.start.jar master java -Dtuscany.adminPort-3000 -jar server.start.jar slave1 etc. You can access the console using http://<server>:7000/scdlForm. As I said it is pretty basic, I am sure it will evolve :) Once again, great to have you. You can send the patches to the list, I will test it and apply it.
