Re: [ecf-dev] Optionally Using ECF Functionality

[Ken Gilmer <kgilmer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rem,

  There are three pieces of information I want to pass:

1. Container name (ecf.irc.irclib)
2. username
3. server (IRC name)

  This information comes from other places in our app.  I'd like to  
pass this info as part of a schema.

thanks
ken
