SpringEmbeddedCacheManagerFactoryBean does not allow overrides when referencing config -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-3125 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-3125 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Spring Integration Affects Versions: 5.3.0.Beta2 Reporter: Mike Noordermeer Assignee: Sebastian Łaskawiec Priority: Minor The SpringEmbeddedCacheManager contains the following comment: bq. A user may further customize the SpringEmbeddedCacheManager's configuration using explicit setters on this FactoryBean. The properties thus defined will be applied either to the configuration loaded from Infinispan's configuration file in case one has been specified, or to a configuration initialized with Infinispan's default settings. Either way, the net effect is that explicitly set configuration properties take precedence over both those loaded from a configuration file as well as INFNISPAN's default settings. In this current version, setting a configfile + overriding properties does not seem to be possible. This can also be seen in {{AbstractEmbeddedCacheManagerFactory.createBackingEmbeddedCacheManager()}}, where the overrides are only applied iff {{configurationFileLocation == null}}. I made a little workaround to fix this issue, but it's a mess because the {{DefaultCacheManager}} does not seem to allow overriding values if it gets its config from an InputStream. The workaround is available at https://gist.github.com/MikeN123/5618297 It seems the same issue exists in {{InfinispanNamedEmbeddedCacheFactoryBean}}, there configuration overrides don't seem to be applied if {{configurationTemplateMode == DEFAULT}}, or {{configurationTemplateMode == NAMED}}, whereas the documentation says that should work.
