[JDEV] Question: packet routing

[Joe Breeden]

I could be wrong about this, so if someone else has a better explanation - please step in, but each message is addressed to a JID and each component has a different JID. So, when a message is sent it is sent to a specific JID with, if it happens to match one for a component JID, is used to route the message to the proper component. Actually, even though your components can receive the main packets - they will only receive the ones actually address to them via their JID.

I hope that is correct and helps.
