Very nice! As the muvium is the likely candidate for static configuration
due to its size contraint this will greatly increase its 'wiring'
flexibility.
A question on the pure dynamic configuration as it relates to muvium: Do you
have a dynamic instantiator alla forName()? This would in effect be the only
core requirement for a purely dynamic configuration scheme.
If not the following would suffice and it would be interesting to see what
the footprint would be after your cross compile. (Note name space is
speculative and not intended to indicate any preference)
/**
*
* Provides a limited small footprint class loader.
* Requires a list of available classes that get instanciated on demand.
* Uses the forName(String className) form as in the standard Java class
loader.
