(3rd May 2007) This pages and the pages hung off it describe the creation of the module which supports the Spring Component Type that I am working on for a demo. This might be useful to anyone looking to build their own Component Type implementation.

implementation-spring module created

org.apache.tuscany.implementation.spring package
 
1 Created ModuleActivator file
 
2 Create SpringModuleActivator class  
3
Create SpringArtifactProcessor class
Reads the implementation.spring xml
- one required attribute = location, which specifies the location of the Spring application context
Creates the implementationSpring instance
Initiates resolution of the componentType of the Spring application context
     
     
     
     
     
     

ModuleActivator file

Placed into the resources/META-INF/services directory:

# Implementation class for the ExtensionActivator
org.apache.tuscany.implementation.script.ScriptModuleActivator

Resolution of the ComponentType of Spring application context

ComponentType of the Spring application-context is performed by reading the application-context.xml file and by introspecting the Java beans which it references.
