Example of Container starting in a servlet?

[Eric Pugh <ep...@upstate.com>]

Hi all,

I am working with someone, getting them turned onto avalon!  Rightnow they
are using the Fulcrum Testcontainer to write unit tests and get to
understand how Avalon works.  I wanted to give him an example of using the
container inside of a simple servlet.  Does anyone have an example servlet
starting up an avalon container?  If not, is there any interest in having
one as an example?

Eric

Hi guys,

Of course, more than happy to post the patch -- need to clean it up
a bit, but expect it today or tomorrow... (have my parents visiting
here, so not a lot of programming time for the moment :-) ).

LOL

The changes are all isolated under the merlin/kernel/loader package for 
the moment - which is not used anywhere in the runtime expect perhaps on 
Alex's machine - and he hasn't received commit provs just yet so we are 
safe for a few more hours!  As we move forward we have to refactor a 
bunch of embedded situations that already exist - and the servlet will 
be one of the targets.  I would not wrorry about refactoring just yet 
because we still have a few things to sort out before this starts.

For the patch - I suggest you apply this relative to 
avalon-sandbox/merlin/merlin-extensions/merlin-servlet

Cheers, Steve.

Re: Example of Container starting in a servlet?

[Filip DeFoort <fi...@cirquedigital.com>]

quick question: so far, I've been testing the servlet tutorial with
the 3.2-dev code base -- what's the cvs branch that all the changes
reg. the embedded kernel are being tested/developed in and does it
make sense for me to put the tutorial in there / retrofit it so it
uses the latest and greatest way of embedding (just caught up with
some of the posts - it looks like the Map that I'm using already
went to bit-heaven).

Filip Defoort posted a message back on the 24-OCT in which he mentioned 
that he has an embedded Merlin kernel running inside a servlet. Also, 
Timothy Bennett has been working on web-engine component (based on 
Jetty) that runs in Merlin and handles deployment of servlets as managed 
components.   Alex Karasulu and I have been working on refactoring the 
embedding processes (or which there are four or five variants already) 
to get that into a very clean, very smart, and very small deployment 
model.  Once the refactoring is done we'll be updating all of the 
embedded scenarios (unit test, command line tool, maven plugins, 
web-app, etc.) to use a single embedding approach.

Also something on the agenda is web-enabling Merlin - so that you 
basically deploy components as you do today, but if if your component 
implements Serlet - then you get 100% servlet support as well.  I.e. 
total seamless web-integration while maintaining a consitent compoent 
and service management architecture.

Question for Filip - any chance you could post a patch or the sources on 
the updated Merlin Servlet demo?

Cheers, Steve.
