True. The common denominator must be the middleware itself. The language should provide an equivalent of the pragma Convention for objects and operations living in the middleware. The interfaces of these things should be publicly protected. I agree with your assertion that DSA concept is wrong. But it would be very difficult to improve that because things are quite unsettled. Interfacing states of distributed objects is just a tip of the iceberg of the services a middleware provides. -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
