A few more questions as I continue to try and wrap myself around the XPipe way of thinking. To me, the value of a pipeline/component based system is the ability to build a variety of reusable domain specific components in addition to the general purpose components that will undoubtedly be developed. The thing one frequently wonders about these systems is how tight or loose and how static our dynamic the bindings are. XComponents are loosely bound. What is envisioned about how static/dynamic the bindings are? If an XPipe description, like an XComponent description, is an XML file can I create one during execution and then use it? Would I want to given the way the architecture is currently envisioned? Likewise, could I generate an XSLT and an XComponent description for it, bind it to other XComponents at runtime and execute it all? Am I asking reasonable questions, or just being crazy as usual?
