System property substitution in config file parsing
---------------------------------------------------
Key: JBCACHE-1218
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCACHE-1218
Project: JBoss Cache
Issue Type: Feature Request
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Reporter: Brian Stansberry
Assigned To: Manik Surtani
Since JBC parses its own config files it would be nice to support the
${some.system.property:somedefault} syntax. This should be trivial to do; just add
callouts to org.jboss.util.StringPropertyReplacer.replaceProperties(String) in
XmlHelper.getAttributeValue() and XmlHelper.getElementContent().
This could even be helpful in JBoss AS if XmlParsingConfigurationRegistry is used -- the
normal AS parsing wouldn't be used in that case. But, it would be simple enough
though for me to write a different ConfigurationRegistry that had its config injected from
MC beans rather than parsing the XML itself.
Manik, I left this assigned to you to give you a shot at making any inputs. If you think
its worthwhile, feel free to assign back to me.
