Hello Everyone,
I've been looking around the internet for various plugin
frameworks
for java...all the while wondering why java didn't have a standard builtin
package for handling such things since it has builtin functionality for so
much other stuff. And then I decided to click on java.beans over there at
the Sun Java Platform API Specification site, and behold, here I am.
I was looking at the Java Plugin Framework ( http://jpf.sourceforge.net/
),
but it seems pretty complex. I'm not sure I'm ready for, or even need all
the stuff that the JPF does. I am wondering though how using JavaBeans as
a
plugin framework compares to using something like JPF. Are there folks
out
there building apps that are totally comprised of javabeans or am I on the
wrong track? Are there any reasons why one wouldn't want to build their
application based on javabeans as opposed to some other framework?
Thanks,
Mark
