However, if you have a plugin interface and have chosen a data model, I don't see reasons why in principle I couldn't use the same plugin format and the same data model - how are you storing data? Is your embedded DB a relational database? In this case, maybe we both could abstract database access from plugins enough to have your plugins work in relfs and maybe the countrary (but would you like plugins written in languages other than java?). Do you have documentation about your data model and plugin architecture? Bye Vincenzo |
