Subject: Re: [sca-j] ISSUE 4 - Dependency reinjection


Mike,

Why wouldn't we use the existing ServiceUnavailableException for your
additional case?

Reza,

This is a good contribution to settling this item of work.

I suggest one addition to the table - "Target Service Undeployed" is OK for
services within the SCA Domain - to deal with services elsewhere,
"Target Service becomes Unavailable" is a better description (we don't know
anything about HOW it became unavailable), but the effects are the same.

Now, I'd like to propose the following, which I realize changes some of the
decisions we made previously, but I am getting concerned about complexity:

1. No reinjection of references occurs by default for any component of any
scope

2. Any component of any scope can declare that it requires reinjection.  My
suggestion is to provide a parameter to the @Reference
annotation reinject="true", which only has meaning for References which are
a) Fields b) accessible via a setter method (ie it cannot apply to a
reference injected via the constructor).

This I believe is much simpler and it gives the component writer a chance
to decide for themselves whether they want to be concerned about
wiring changes occurring dynamically during the lifetime of a component.
It will also make it simpler for us to give a good description of the
kinds of circumstance in which it might be good to react to wiring changes.

Hi All,

In an effort to try to put more structure around a potential solution to
issue 4, Michael and I put together the attached table. Most of the content
is derived from conlusions reached by the TC's past discussions. A matrix
such as this might help us better focus future discussions.

Looking forward to your feedback,

Reza
