rlenferink opened a new issue #85: Add support for symbol based serialization/RPC
URL: https://github.com/apache/celix/issues/85
 
 
   Currently the remote service admin and pubsub are based on the use of dfi and descriptors. Another option could be to support the de/serialization and RPC using predefined function signatures.
   
   Using the extender pattern these function can be found and used without polluting the types/services with serialization/RPC code and make it possible to support a wide range of existing serialization/rpc techniques.
   
   For example a service with the name "HelloWord" could have a bundle entry 'META-INF/services/HelloWorld.rpc_info' entry containing a simple properties files with - atleast- the entires "create_proxy" and "create_endpoint". These refer to symbols in the shared libraries of the bundle with predefined signatures.
   
   More design details are needed before this can be implemented. Also a initial tech. should be chosen (e.g. RPC).
