  We describe ongoing work on a framework for automatic composition synthesis
from a repository of software components. This work is based on combinatory
logic with intersection types. The idea is that components are modeled as typed
combinators, and an algorithm for inhabitation {\textemdash} is there a
combinatory term e with type tau relative to an environment Gamma?
{\textemdash} can be used to synthesize compositions. Here, Gamma represents
the repository in the form of typed combinators, tau specifies the synthesis
goal, and e is the synthesized program. We illustrate our approach by examples,
including an application to synthesis from GUI-components.
