Not sure exactly what you are fishing for... But, 1. As it is now, it is not possible to reach out and lookup/access components in other JVMs without some serious implementation of your own behalf. A generic solution is not likely to occur "soon", and you would probably also have issues with RMI delays in your application. 2. But I have the feeling that you only want you component/block to work in the local context without accessing the 'larger' context in your local runtime. That is indeed what Metro is all about. Any block can be deployed in a larger context, without much trouble. Meaning to say, if it works in your local context, it will work in a larger application (except for conflict on global resources, and stuff like that). The opposite may not be true, since the smaller block may be dependent on services that you don't provide in the local context. For that, you can create small mock-components that does "enough", and rely on Metro to resolve the dependency automatically (i.e. no assembly changes) in its larger context. Please provide more information if that answer wasn't clear enough.
