dmServer Slices

Hi!

I found this post:
http://blog.springsource.com/2009/06...source-slices/
that talks about Slices. I think this feature is great! In fact I think is really similar to what I have been developing so far. Where can I find more information about this new feature? I think it could be really interesting for my project:
http://myflit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/myflit/
I can so far load and unload a new Tab (web bundle) in the TabArea (main web application). I can use the OSGi lifecycle to start/stop a component of the main web interface and so modify the user interface without stopping the web application.
In this scenario I think slices fits perfectly!


Best regards,
Victor

Hi Victor, it's great to hear that you like the look of Slices. It was certainly intended that it'd be very useful for the kind of project that you're working on, so it's great to hear that it's proving to be the case.

Slices is still in its infancy so there isn't a huge amount of information available at the moment. We do have some plans to produce a Slices screencast in the next couple of weeks so keep an eye out for that. In the meantime, there's another post about Slices on our blog that you may be interested in. You can also take a look at the code which is available in our Git repository (git://git.springsource.org/slices/slices.git) and FishEye.
