[Embedlets-developer] Avalon [from JStamp List]

>Yes...that would be the case.

I actually don't have a problem with using Avalon as the framework if we
also except that for some implementations the embedded java device simply
won't have the capacity to run to the avalon framework classes no matter how
light they are.

This is actually another really good example of distributing complexity to
the server to keep the embedded end as lean as possible. Previously we used
the proxy interface as an example of capabilities the server would offer us
and this time it is the ability to use Avalon framework and STILL enable the
whole embeddlet infrastructure to work if we except the proviso that where
the embedlet runs can be either server or remote side.

Previously you stated that you simply would not be involved if all
implementations could not run the embeddlets on both a the server and remote
side. If we go with avalon it will be a real squeeze to guarantee the
embedlets can run on uVM.

It simply makes sense to be able to configure the complexity to run
whereever it can run in any one system which means I continue to stick to
the idea of being able to run the embeddlets server side and in fact use
avalon as a demonstration of the advantages of doing so.

Yes...that would be the case.  But they are modular and lightweight enough
(at
least for the framework) that I don't see this as a big issue.  If we don't
adopt
some pre-existing framework (like Avalon) then we'll probably just end up
writing our own versions of the same classes, which will take longer, likely
repeat some mistakes, and not buy us much in class size.

This is the sound of an empty LIST!!

Looking forward to the rest of the embedlets crew wander accoss to the new
list!
