- <s1 title="So you want to build your won container, huh?">
+ <s1 title="Prerequisites">
+ <p>Question: Do you know what Lifecycle in Avalon is? Ok, start reading.</p>
+ <p>If not, look at Egg and understand this concept before reading about Containers.</p>
+ </s1>
+
+ <s1 title="Do I really know what a Container is?">
<p>Well, you're mostly on your own for now. We're still working
on the entire concept of container and on the various containers
that ship with avalon.</p>
+
+ <p>Anyway, Tweety.java conceptually is a Container. Look at the difference between
+ Tweety and Egg, and you'll see that the main difference are:
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Egg has just main(), while Main calles Tweety, ie The application (Main) uses the container (Tweety)</li>
+ <li>Tweety is a Container but also a Component; this is important, because it could contain
+ itself hierarchically.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ </p>
+
+ </s1>
+
+ <s1 title="So you want to build your won container, huh?">
<p>For now, I suggest you check out the sources for Tweety
(inside the <code>jakarta-avalon-excalibur</code> CVS module),
