[Manik Surtani (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1228?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12614891#comment-12614891 ] 

Manik Surtani commented on ISPN-1228:
-------------------------------------

Infinispan already supports this.  See this unit test that proves it:

https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan/blob/master/core/src/test/java/org/infinispan/config/StringPropertyReplacementTest.java

which makes use of this test config file:

https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan/blob/master/core/src/test/resources/configs/string-property-replaced.xml

Please try this out and reopen if it doesn't work for you, and we will investigate.

> Currently all values configured in infinispan.xml need to be hardcoded in the file as System property placeholders are not supported.
> There are many cases when it's not ideal to have the values there for example when configuring a jdbc cache store, the db, user, pass, etc... need to be hardcoded for the configuration to work.
> Ideally infinispan would resolve placeholders such as ${jdbc.user} to a predefined system property or a property file, with that name in the same way other frameworks like spring, ant, maven, etc... do.
