[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (ISPN-534) Standardise keys used for System properties, .properties and Properties entries

Standardise keys used for System properties, .properties and Properties entries ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-534 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-534 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Task Components: Configuration Affects Versions: 4.1.0.CR1 Reporter: Manik Surtani Assignee: Manik Surtani Fix For: 4.1.0.CR2, 4.1.0.Final I have seen a number of places in the codebase where we take in system parameters. In some cases this is to control certain unit test options such as: http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/cachestore/jdbc/src/test... http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/cachestore/cloud/src/int... http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/core/src/test/java/org/i... And in some cases these control runtime options such as: http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/i... http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/server/rest/src/main/sca... http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/server/core/src/main/sca... And we occasionally use Properties to configure certain bits, such as certain Hot Rod and Memcached server options: http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/server/core/src/main/sca... And even Hot Rod client configs. http://fisheye.jboss.org/browse/Infinispan/trunk/client/hotrod-client/src... And here are some examples of what the keys to these properties are: infinispan.jclouds.username infinispan.jdbc infinispan.tm infinispan.config.schema infinispan.server.rest.cfg program.name infinispan.server.host infinispan.hotrod-client.servers-default I would like to standardise on these a bit. It would (a) make it easier to document and (b) provide a greater level of consistency. So here is what I propose: * All system and property keys start with "infinispan." * Properties destined to control the way the test suite runs should have ".test." * The next bit should be the relevant affected module. E.g., ".server.hotrod." or ".server.rest." or ".client.hotrod.", or ".server." for stuff that is common across all server endpoints. * and the last bit could be descriptive to what the key controls. E.g., ".host". So, from above, the examples would look like: infinispan.test.cachestore.jclouds.username infinispan.test.cachestore.jdbc.driver infinispan.test.core.tm infinispan.core.config.schema infinispan.server.cfg (program.name? Don't know what this is... ) infinispan.server.host infinispan.client.hotrod.servers -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
