Danny,
I'm less about making arguments and more about trying to
describe the Event
Processing ideas in the same terms that we
have already described for services in the current V1.1

There, the spec does describe different styles of
runtime, with differing approaches to deployment and to the
possibility
of redeployment.
Mike -
Let me rephrase my previous mail from "your arguments ... " to
"your questions ...". I didn't mean to appear argumentative
by my lazy choice of words :-)
I tried to point out that
auto-deployment
carries an implication of redeployment, since if the runtime
auto-deploys
some channel
for which there is actually a concrete channel supplied by some
later deployment,
then we are inevitably into the realm of
redeployment.
Again, though, I don't see the questions being centered around
auto-deployment,
but about deployment and redeployment in general. Imagine, for
instance
that in order to deploy some composite, I must first deploy a
GDC (if we
don't allow auto-deployment). So I do so, but give it no
configuration,
or any configuration that isn't acceptable to a later
deployment. And
I reword your statement slightly: "... auto-deployment
carries an implication of redeployment, since if the runtime
auto- administrator
deploys some channel for which there is actually a
concrete channel different
configuration supplied by some
later deployment,
then we are inevitably into the realm of redeployment. "
<mje>
Your words don't
mean anything
like my original ones - you've avoided the question of how the
simple case
of my application composite containing
the definition of
a Domain
channel to deploy gets handled in the case of a runtime
offering auto-deployment.
</mje>
<vdR>
My words weren't intended to be too similar to your original, but
I certainly missed the question of the application composite being
deployed containing the definition of an auto-deployed channel.
My apologies. I don't see anything for an auto-deploying runtime
to do in the case where the GDC is defined as part of what is
being deployed. But again, if the composite doesn't contain the
GDC definition, we're back to either rejecting it or
auto-deploying it, aren't we? Am I missing something here?

Redeployment of a channel is at the least a tricky thing. The
same
can be said of the redeployment of a service component.
Basically, what happens to anything that is "in flight"? I
was trying to address some of these issues for auto-deploy
channels in
what I wrote.
I would say that GDC's don't have an analogue in the 1.1
specification
in that the 1.1 specification allows and encourages fuller
encapsulation.
With the current event processing drafts there is a large area
where
we're forcing components that wish to communicate outside of
their component
using SCA to do so using GDCs. There is no way, for instance to
assemble
two components that communicate with each other into a
self-contained,
encapsulated composite.
<mje>
That you can make
such
a statement makes me feel that you have a very different
understanding
of SCA than I do.
For me, the
assembly of
2 components that communicate with each other via a channel is
"HelloWorld"
level SCA 1.2.
I also don't
understand
the comment that "we're forcing components ... to do so using
GDCs"
- promotion is there for the support of controlled exposure of
dependencies
and this applies to both producers and consumers.
If your concern is
with
this statement in the current spec: "An
SCA runtime MAY support the use of private channels [ASM????]."
ie non-Domain channels are optionally supported, then I
suggest that you
raise a very specific issue to deal with that.
</mje>
<vdR>
Can you explain your "HelloWorld" scenario? Just to be sure that
you understood my point, what I'm focusing on is the fact that I
start with 2 components that are developed independently, then I
assemble them into a composite that is both encapsulated, and
self-contained. In my mind that rules out any use of GDCs. (i.e.
my "forcing ... " comment as an option that I don't like.) And
since we don't have an answer for promotion a la 227, I'm not sure
how to solve it at all, let alone with the triviality that you
imply. What kind of promotion are you using in your use case?
Perhaps it's promoting one producer and one consumer? If so, how
would you do that with channels instead?
And no, I'm not talking about the private channels at all in this
thread.

In 1.1, the redeployment question
that you
ask can be asked for the whole encapsulated composite as a
whole, and can
be answered in ways that are probably more self-consistent than
what we
can come up with for GDCs. I understand that this is more of an
argument
against GDCs and/or an argument for resolution of 227 in a way
that addresses
this question. I continually find myself butting up against
that
issue, yet we seem to have devolved into a pattern of ignoring
the elephant
in the room. This week, this blind man grasps the 227 elephant
by
the tail and sees it as a 253 rope ...
<mje>
I simply don't
follow.
</mje>
<vdR>
Let me take another stab here. You were asking about
redeployment. If what you're redeploying is completely
encapsulated, then an implementer could imagine various scenarios
that are all defensible - all in-flight messages are preserved;
all in-flight messages are lost; etc.
I agree with you that redeployment of GDCs poses a sticky
problem. My answer to that is to use GDCs less, or delete them
entirely. If we could solve 227, I would find myself FAR less
likely to want to use GDCs. That was the point I was trying to
make, albeit a bit obliquely. My apologies for that.
Regardeless of what happens with 227, I don't see how adding this
other use case where GDCs could be redeployed puts the onus of
solving the redeployment problem on that new use case. That seems
to me to be your argument.

Now, let me make my position clear on "auto deployment". I
think that we have similar behaviour applied in particular to
PolicySets,
with the notion that in principle an SCA Runtime can have other
mechanisms
to supply these things to the Domain, other than by
deploying the contents of one or more Contributions. eg there
is
the concept of PolicySets being deployed from some kind of
Repository and not necessarily being held in any application
Contribution.
The current specs don't disallow this, although they
deliberately don't say much about it since the possibilities for
implementation
are very broad and there is little normative to say.
What it is - is outside the standards.
While I see some analogy here, and agree with it, the presence
of a reference
channel is somewhat more intrinsic to operation than the
presence of a
PolicySet is, so I feel much less comfortable being vague about
it. Clarity
is necessary here, whether it is to explicitly allow or
explicity disallow
auto-deployment and/or define what the behavior is in the
absence of a
referenced GDC.
So, I could envisage auto-deployment along the same lines.
Something
that any SCA Runtime could choose to provide by some
means, but where the SCA specifications say very little. If an
SCA
runtime chooses to provide auto-deployment, then it can do so
in any way it wishes.
I agree that it would be an implementation decision as to how to
do it.
I would support a proposal that uses different RFC language
from
the initial proposal in the JIRA. Something along the lines of
When contributing artifacts to a domain that contain references
to global
domain channels that have not been previously deployed, the SCA
runtime
MAY reject such contributions. Alternatively, the SCA runtime
MAY
automatically create and deploy said global domain channels in
this situation.
The downside for an application developer is that their
application, as
contained in a set of Contributions, may not work on some SCA
runtimes, if the developer/assembler chooses not to contain one
or more
Domain Channels within their composites, that they rely on
in some components within the application. If they do this,
then
their application may work fine on an SCA runtime that supports
auto-creation but fail when run with a runtime that does not
support auto-creation.
The same is true, I note, of PolicySets - if the
application does not supply them, there is no guarantee that
they will
be made available through some other mechanism by the
SCA runtime.
See my earlier comment on the analogue to policySets. I would
also
point out that the "defensive" manuever of including the GDC
in the composite may well backfire if the GDC already exists in
the domain.
Are we left with another issue along the lines of do we allow
deployment
of "compatible" configurations of GDCs??
However, for any SCA Runtime that DOES provide auto-creation,
there is
a need to describe what happens if, due to the sequence of
deployments, some auto-created channel is "replaced" by the
later
deployment of a "real channel". In my opinion, it would
be wise to
try to avoid such a situation. However, I don't see a way of
preventing
this situation - perhaps this is something that you'd like to
describe.
To answer whether the auto-deployed channel is any less "real"
than something else, I would offer that it doesn't matter to the
runtime
where the contribution came from. So if you would find it more
clear
to define auto-deployment as the process of the runtime
synthesizing a
piece of contribution and deploying it, I would not object to
that.
<mje>
An auto-deployed
channel
would be just as real as anything else, but you seem to be
sliding away
from my point - IF a channel were auto-deployed but my
application happened
to consist of multiple
separately
deployed contributions
and just happened to contain the definition of the Domain
channel in a
contribution that is deployed later, then what happens?
How does the
deployer distinguish
this case?
</mje>
<vdR>
I think I'm starting to see what I couldn't divine before - your
use case seems to be not that the GDC is deployed 2 weeks after
the composite in which it is used, as I had thought. Your use
case is that the GDC is deployed 30 seconds after? Is that it?
In that case, you have a problem no matter what. There is going
to have to be *something* done by the runtime to the first
composite. Either the runtime should reject its deployment, the
runtime should ask "Do you have a GDC definition in your pocket
that I could deploy before I (finish) deploy(ing) this one?" it
could auto-deploy one and fail/redeploy later, etc. There are
many possibilities. But again, I don't see how auto-deployment
*creates* this problem. It is possible that it exacerbates it, I
agree. But if that's what you're worried about, then let's answer
that in the context of an issue around that, rather than in this
issue.

Redeployment is something that we must describe in general for
all of SCA.
<mje>
OK, in that case,
would
you care to describe the redeployment of a Channel and its
implications?
So far I have
noted that
auto-creation implies redeployment. One reason I'm not in
favour
of auto-deployment is BECAUSE of this redeployment implication
and its
consequences.
If you can show
that redeployment
of a channel is a breeze, then perhaps some of my concerns
will go away.
</mje>
<vdR>
I'm fine with the idea of deleting GDCs from the draft. That
would go a long way to dealing with your redeployment issues. I
imagine that idea wouldn't go over well, though ;-)
I disagree with what you note. Auto-creation does not imply
redeployment. Sure, redeployment can follow auto-creation, but
redeployment is not required. If redeployment is your bugbear,
then let's have an issue about that, and not think that a spec
without auto-creation doesn't require dealing with redeployment.

allowing
auto-deployment, as redeploying a channel that was previously

redeployment -
no more, no less.

Mike -
Your arguments seem to me to be more arguing against case a)
than against
autocreation, as they hold for *any* more restrictive
redeployment, not
just one whose previously deployed state was perhaps
auto-deployed.
Auto-deployment (as I envision it) is merely shorthand for an
actual deployment.
("Your composite references a global domain channel that hasn't
been
deployed. Shall I create one for you and deploy it, or would
you
prefer me to reject deployment of your composite outright?")
Your
arguments just point out another weakness I see in the concept
of global
domain channels.

Danny,
SCA Runtime "styles";
a) Reconfiguration/Redeployment is allowed
b) Reconfiguration/Redeployment is not allowed
Case b) is the simpler of the two. In this case, all the
configuration
must be present when the runtime is started.
Either Domain channels are part of the configuration at this
point or not
- if not, then any references to Domain
channels would either be errors (no auto-creation of channels)
or would
require auto-creation of channels.
Case a) is the case where there can be separate deployment of
(some) consumers
& producers and of the
channel(s) that they connect to. I note that this can only
happen
for Domain level channels. Once separate
deployment is possible, then the timing of deployment matters -
if Channel
deployment is later than deployment
of any of the producers that connect to the channel, then it the
question
of auto-creation comes into play.
If no auto-creation is NOT allowed by the runtime, then any
event produced
will have nowhere to go, which might
be flagged as an error (since the producer is configured to
transmit the
events). If auto-creation is allowed, then
the events will be flowed to an auto-created Channel and on to
whatever
consumers are connected to that channel.
When the Channels are later deployed into such a runtime, I
assume that
the auto-created Channels get "replaced"
by the deployed versions, with whatever configuration they
carry. Since
the configuration may carry Filters, this may
mean that some events get forwarded by the auto-created channel
that don't
get forwarded by the specifically
deployed channel. I'm not sure what this would mean for the
consumers
attached to the channel. More problematic
would be any binding and policy information attached - the
binding could
indicate the need to have the channel use
some specific existing infrastructure (eg some MQ queue) - and
if the intention
is that events flow to/from the existing
infrastructure, then the auto-deploy channel is unlikely to do
this.
I think the result of this is that during the period when any
auto-deploy
channels are being used, before the point
where the specifically configured channels are active, that some
events
may not reach all their intended destination(s)
and some events may not be received by some SCA consumers
listening on
those channels.
All of which might argue for a process of deploying the Domain
channels
first, which kind of undermines the idea of
auto-deploying those channels.

OK, I'll take a stab at answering your question, although I'm
just presenting
one alternative among many.
First, though, your wording interests me:
in the case where the channel concerned DOES
have configuration and it so happens that the channel is
deployed to the
Domain some time after some of the
producers and consumers using the channel are deployed to the
Domain.
What intrigues me is the notion that your use case allows you to
assert
that something about the channel's configuration. Can that
configuration
never change? If so, how would you deal with changing that? By
undeploying and redeploying it? Some other means?
I would apply whatever answer you have to that question to this
one.
To wit:
Say that you do allow some form of runtime redeployment or
modification.
So in this case the implementation MAY autodeploy the channel
(RFC
2119 wording intentional). If someone chooses to redeploy the
channel
with further configuration later, so be it. Use whatever form
of
modification you were going to support in the case where the
prior configuration
was not auto-deployed.
Say you don't allow modification. Then I'd say that your
implementation
should either not allow for autodeployment, or that your
implementation
should put up some reasonable bar to autodeployment.

Danny and Eric's arguments have convinced me that
auto-creation of
global channels make sense. It would certainly simplify
config/deploy --
I won't have to create a separate composite that contains only
the
channel name and then deploy it to the domain. Currently we do
allow
this for the default channel ("//"). As Eric points out, my
issue
wrt
error detection can be dealt with by tools (I can have a
global option
or flag for the deployer). Given that we already allow this
for the
default channel, and channels currently require no additional
configuration (one can have configuration, but is not required
to),
autocreation would provide a consistent model and would make
simple
deployment scenarios easier.

>>> >>>>> Title: Must a global domain
channel be
deployed before it can be
>>> >>>>> used?
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> Target: Assembly 1.2 WD 03
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> Description:
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> Via the "@target" and
"@source"
attributes defined on a consumer&
>>> >>>>> producer, the assembler can
reference
global domain channels.
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> In section 5.8, the presumed
to be normative
text reads "SCA
>>> runtimes
>>> >>>>> MUST support the use of
domain channels
[ASM????]." That is
>>> followed
>>> >>>>> by:
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> "To create a Domain Channel,
deploy
a composite containing a
>>> channel
>>> >>>>> directly to the SCA Domain
(i.e., do
not use that composite as the
>>> >>>>> implementation of some
component in the
Domain)."
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> Neither of the above
indicate whether
or not the global domain
>>> >>>>> channel
>>> >>>>> can be used before it is
referenced.
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> Proposal:
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> General theme: do not
require the global
domain channel to exist
>>> >>>>> before
>>> >>>>> it can be used.
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> Specific text (needs
refinement?):
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> In section 5.8, Paragraph
#2, append:
>>> >>>>>
>>> >>>>> When contributing artifacts
to a domain
that contain references to
>>> >>>>> global domain channels that
have not
been created, the SCA runtime
>>> >>>>> MUST
>>> >>>>> automatically create said
global domain
channels, and cannot reject
>>> >>>>> such
>>> >>>>> contributions [ASM????].
