> This is a layering violation.  The util layer
> should contain low-level stuff that doesn't depend on the core. This
> list of DLL types, although it is in util, conceptually is describing an
> aspect of core (the kinds of DLL that core can load).  If you changed
> the structure of core or even some other module (for example  dynamically loading 
> security modules), then you would have to modify util.
> The right solution is just to make the dll type be a string.
> The util layer knows only hat it's a string, but doesn't know what the
> legal string values are.  The core layer would then define constants for
> the kinds of DLLs it needs (eg "svc" for the AXIS2_SVC_DLL), and the
> security layer can do likewise.
