<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi All,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We are developing a Component oriented system
which uses events to communicate among each other.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fault-tolerance & reliability is one of our
major concern. </FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* Is Spread a feasible alternative in this scenario
?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* Can one pass an event/message to an
individual component/object/application/process using spread
(point-to-point)?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* Does a Component have to be a part of a group to
receive events/messages ?</FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* What is a private group ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* Assuming that my system is going to operate
within a "site" and not on Wide Area Network. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>How many daemons do I need to instantiate ? Is one
daemon enough( something kinda a huge event Router )?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* If a component A wants to send a event/message to
component B, how can it be done using spread ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does A & B have to be in a same group to
receive messages ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>* I am using CORBA events for my stuff. How can
Spread be a better option instead of CORBA in this case ?</FONT></DIV>
