Ok, I can see this now. I had not really thought about placing a JAPL interface inside of another JAPL interface but I guess being able to use JAPL interfaces anywhere (not just in Embedlets) was the reason we broke JAPL out as a separate entity in the first place. As for publishing a complex control component under JAPL, in my initial vision for JAPL I had imagined them being very similar to JINI Proxy objects where the whole (sometimes very complex) service the client is using is abstracted behind an interface. >If you want me to put the MediaController together, I will do that as well. Yes, this sounds great! I was wondering how I was going to implement the JAPLServoController interface I had in mind but being able to use a JAPLMediaController to do this is going to make this task much easier.
