Yes. And a lot more service implementations. The example setup described in my mail is just a simple example (With just a simple test service). The whole picture would be a complex backend project which handles business logic and persistence and multiple lightweight frontend webs using this backend. Putting all the backend stuff into a JAR and placing it in the lib directory would definitely work but isn't nice for development because it does not allow hot deployment. Having just the interfaces and a service factory in the lib directory would be better because then changes to the backend implementation stuff could be hot-deployed. Interface changes still need a redeployment of the interface JAR file and a tomcat restart but hopefully the interfaces will not change often. (A solution which works without a global interface library would be even nicer though...) -- Bye, K <http://www.ailis.de/~k/> [A735 47EC D87B 1F15 C1E9 53D3 AA03 6173 A723 E391] (Finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] to get public key)
