| Re: [ecf-dev] ISharedObjectObjectContainer problem client side - SharedObjects not found | 
Hi Robert,

I have also successfully advertised the info representing the server
sharedobjectcontainer using the IDiscoveryAdvertiser
On the client side, I have successfully found the info using
IDiscoveryLocator, created a client ecf container and connected it to
the server
I have received an IContainerConnectedEvent in IContainerListener.handleEvent
However, when I query the IDs of the services within the shared object
container, I find an empty array:
//this is fine
ISharedObjectContainer soc = (ISharedObjectContainer) ((IAdaptable)
container).getAdapter(ISharedObjectContainer.class);
													
//yup, picks up the manager OK
													
ISharedObjectManager manager = soc.getSharedObjectManager();
//oh dear, I find ids is an empty array
													
ID[] ids = manager.getSharedObjectIDs();
												
Am I missing a step here?
Not necessarily.  A couple of questions:
1) Where/when do you create/add the shared object within the client 
container?  Do you do so within your own code?
2) If not, is it your intention/desire that the shared object would be 
added at connect time?...i.e. by the server replicating the shared 
object to the client?
2 is quite possible...and I can describe how to do it easily 
enough...but I first want to understand what you are intending to have 
happen on the client...are you expecting to have the shared object 
replicated into the client (when connected to the server), or are you 
expecting to explicitly create and add the shared object on the client 
(as well as on the server)?  Both are quite possible/doable...the 
current eventadmin example creates and adds the shared object on the 
client (as well as the server), explicitly in application-level code 
(partially just to be more explicit).
So please let us know what your intention/desire is for the client 
replica of the shared object, and we'll figure it out.

ps thanks for a fantastic framework.
Thank you for the pleasant words.  It is appreciated.  If you feel 
comfortable doing so, blogging about your usage of ECF would be most 
helpful also.
ECF does not have any marketing resources of it's own, and IMHO EF 
marketing is worse than useless when it comes to doing anything for 
volunteer-based projects like ECF...so crowd sourcing is the best way to 
get the word out for us...
Anyway...thanks.
