| Hi Scott,thanks again for providing this sample implementation! That makes it
    very transparent how things work.
 Actually I thought the ecf-generic provider would work that way ;)
 
 I wasn't able to get the server up and running.  Maybe a problem
    with the launch configuration. See below for the bundles and their
    states.
 I added a sample service which should by exported by adding
    something like
 
 @Component(property = {
 "service.exported.interfaces=*",
 "service.exported.configs=ecf.namespace.socket"
 })
 public class HelloService implements IHello{
 
 public HelloService() {
 System.err.println();
 }
 
 @Override
 public void sayHello() {
 System.err.println("Hello");
 }
 
 }
 
 but as said before, the server does not seem to get started. The
    start code in the Activator does the registration but the 
    RemoteServiceContainerInstantiator.createInstance is never called.
 Any idea?
 
 Thanks!
 
 Bye Peter

        Hi Scott,
 
 that sounds and looks really promising! I'll need some time to
        process the information you gave and look at the code and then
        come back to you.
 
 
 This morning I've added some code to allow properties to set the
      hostname and port on server side, and to use the ecf.endpoint.id
      on client side to connect to the given hostname and port.   This
      is working...see TCPSocketServerContainer and
      TCPSocketClientContainer classes.
 
 I've been testing localhost with the LAN-based discovery
      (zeroconf) so the hostname/port exported in the endpoint
      description is what is used on the client.   If/when other
      discovery and import is used on the client, then it can do
      whatever it wants wrt what hostname and port to use to connect to
      the server.
 
 There are some ways that this is limited, but it can be
      generalized or extended, and I'm hoping it will give a good idea
      of how to create others.
 
 Scott
