Hello,

In a GA implementation using ECJ, I created a class as the domain model
responsible to load its own data.

Before running the ECJ framework I set this model into a singleton that ECJ
just accessed from the problem class (defined from the property definition
file). .

Using this singleton as a "portal" to pass any data does not seem to be the
right way... but it worked. In my case, I used ECJ as a jar into my
application to enforce abstraction and encapsulation in my code.

So, if I choose not to touch the ECJ code and use it as a dependency
artifact, how should I pass a configurated class to run?

Maybe the parameter database is the right way but using a jar?

        try
        {
            org.usach.diinf.or.facade.ecj.Evolve.main(parameters.array());
        }
        catch(Throwable t)
        {
            logger.error(t, t);
            throw new ORException("Error in ECJ!", t);
        }

Now I am working on a GP project so it would be interesting to know your
experience in this topic.


Best regards,
Alejandro.

PD: Please excuse my written english.
