Hi all, Thanks for your comments. I've explained a little bit about doStart(), doFail() and doStop() on this page ( http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/developing-and-deploying-a-geronimo-gbean.html), but might not be sufficient. Any ideas for improvement?
And we have drafted a section named Referencing another GBean<http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/developing-and-deploying-a-geronimo-gbean.html#DevelopingandDeployingaGeronimoGBean-ReferencinganotherGBean> on this page to describe how to use *Reference*, and gives an example.
