How To Quickly Integrate Reactor into Coldspring

It took me a bit of digging around before I was able to find this information, so I thought it might be worth writing a quick post about. Doug recently updated the Reactor factory and provided an example of how to integrate it into Coldspring. I would imagine at the time of writing, you will need the latest version from svn ( svn export svn://alagad.com/reactor/trunk via CLI) rather than the current downloadable release. This was actually a different way to do it than I’d seen before, so I’m glad I took some time to look around rather than just trying to do it myself.

Given that both Reactor and Coldspring are still works in progress, don’t be surprised if there ends-up being a better way to integrate them at some point– I just thought I’d post a quick entry about how to get it up and running quickly.

  1. You can actually just specify the path to the XML config file (as a constructor arg for the Reactor factory) if you don’t want the whole config object.

    I’ve just committed changes to Model-Glue and ColdSpring that make it possible to autowire Reactor-generated DAOs and Gateways, based on Kurt Wiersma’s changes to ColdSpring to support factory-bean and factory-method. I’ll post more on my blog shortly.
