Excalibur Fortress
Fortress contains a framework to help you create your own
avalon containers. It boasts asynchronous management of your
component instances, high scalability, easier maintenance of
your code, and easy embedding into various environments like
servlet engines. Fortress replaces the older
Excalibur Component Manager (ECM) container.
Fortress 1.1
Fortress 1.1 has been released and includes a number of bug fixes. See the
download section to get
the latest source and binary distributions.
Available Documentation
- The Fortress documentation has not yet been updated for the latest
release. We are currently working on new documentation in the
wiki.
-
The Avalon developers are working to provide better consistency
between our containers (ECM, Fortress, Phoenix, Merlin). We hope to
offer a single platform that will build on our previous efforts.
Please subscribe to the users or developers mailing list to receive
the latest updates. See the wiki for more information on
which container
to consider and
where the
containers came from.
- For general information about the avalon project, you will want to read the
Avalon Framework Documentation.
Developing with Avalon is a
terribly useful resource as well.
