[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JGRP-723) Use Java annotations to automatically set protocol properties
[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-723?page=comments#action_12404700 ]
Bela Ban commented on JGRP-723:
-------------------------------
I've thought about this before, but one big argument against it is that this would not
work in the J2ME world. Annotations for exposing attrs and ops for JMX are okay, because
this is optional in J2ME, but the protocol config isn't.
Let's discuss this during our Kreuzlingen meeting...
Use Java annotations to automatically set protocol properties
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JGRP-723
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-723
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 2.7
Reporter: Vladimir Blagojevic
Assigned To: Vladimir Blagojevic
Fix For: 2.7
Currently we use a lot of boiler plate code to read protocol properties specified in
configuration file. We can eliminate this unnecessary code by using annotations and a bit
of Java reflection that would assign protocol property values to matching Java fields,
give warnings for deprecated properties, and so on. We should:
1) introduce @ProtocolProperty annotation
2) annotate Protocol fields that are properties
3) test framework
4) remove all current boilerplate code
