Hi Jean-Baptiste,

Thanks for the reply. Although using a web service is not the most
efficient way to connect two server-side components running in the same
application server, it does indeed seem like the best option in this
case. I tried reusing some of the classes from sonar-core (e.g.
MeasureFilter) to retrieve metrics directly from the database but I
wasn't successful, so I'm taking the web service approach now.

Best regards,
Pieter Agten
