[news.eclipse.technology.ecf] remote extension - is it supported by r-OSGi?

Hi,

there is a extension-point in module #1, and a corresponding extension in module #2.

As long as I deploy the two modules into the same OSGi container I am good to go.

But what about deploying them into two different OSGi containers that can communicate to each other?
Does ECF support this kind of cooperation?


What I mean here:
There is an OSGi server having mudule #2 deployed.
When you start your Eclipse RCP application
- ECF connects to the server
- queries its extension registry for the extensions of our extension-point
- creates proxy object instances for the remote ones
- registers the found extensions into the local extension registry
- and from this point there is no difference between a remote and a local extension...


Is it possible with ECF?

Thanks,
Marton
