Package org.apache.avalon.framework.component

This interface identifies classes that can be used as Components by a Composable.

A ComponentManager selects Components based on a role.

A Composable class is one that needs to connect to software components using a "role" abstraction, thus not depending on particular implementations but on behavioral interfaces.

This is the default implementation of the ComponentSelector.

This is a ComponentManager implementation that can wrap around a ServiceManager object effectively adapting a ServiceManager interface to a ComponentManager interface.
