Hi all,

I have got a question about circular dependencies in Avalon/Merlin. Merlin
seems to prevent this kind of relationship during startup while it's not
impossible to specify it within the XML component descriptions. As Avalon
uses a component initialization process based on stages I don't see why this
can't work. So the question is: How can I initialize a system of components
with circular dependencies without causing Merlin to terminate during
startup? Has anybody experienced similar problems and how did you solve
them?

I would be glad if anyone has usefull information about this problem.

Thanks,

Jan
