[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBAS-6520) Support BOM in cofiguration file(s)

Support BOM in cofiguration file(s) ----------------------------------- Key: JBAS-6520 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6520 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: JBossAS-5.0.0.GA, JBossAS-4.2.3.GA, JBossAS-4.2.2.GA Environment: XP Pro Reporter: David Hoffer As a developer I want to be able to edit the login-config.xml file (and all others) with text editors that may insert a BOM in the file to specify encoding. Currently the JBoss logic that reads/parses the login-config.xml does not support BOM(s). Rather here is the error log report if a BOM exists. 2009-02-16 14:45:08,182 DEBUG [org.jboss.security.auth.login.XMLLoginConfigImpl] Try loading config as XML, url=file:/C:/jboss-4.2.3.GA/server/default/conf/login-config.xml 2009-02-16 14:45:08,229 DEBUG [org.jboss.security.auth.login.XMLLoginConfigImpl] Failed to load config as XML org.jboss.xb.binding.JBossXBException: Failed to parse source: Content is not allowed in prolog. @ *unknown*[1,1] at org.jboss.xb.binding.parser.sax.SaxJBossXBParser.parse(SaxJBossXBParser.java:193) at org.jboss.xb.binding.UnmarshallerImpl.unmarshal(UnmarshallerImpl.java:158) Also, since this error is reported very early in the log file, when errors caused by this are observed, it is not at all obvious that this error has already occurred. It would greatly increase developer productivity it the JBoss product can work with/without file BOMs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
