[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JGRP-792) JGroups ignores mcast_addr attribute in XML when "jgroups.udp.mcast_addr" is set

Wojciech Meler commented on JGRP-792:
-------------------------------------

It would be great if jgroups deal with variables substitution in XML config - like mcast_addr="${jgroups.udp.mcast_addr:228.12.12.12}" instead of hardcoded system property.
Actually I thought it works this way...

> JGroups seems to ignore mcast_addr attribute of <UDP/> element in XML configuration file used as a parameter in JChannel constructor,  when the system property "jgroups.udp.mcast_addr" is set.
> This behaviour has been observed on JBoss 4.2.1.GA started with an argument: -u 239.192.0.5. I'm trying to connect to group in the start() method of my MBean:
> public void start() throws ChannelException {
> 		channel = new JChannel("my-udp.xml");
> 		channel.connect("MyGroup");
> 		UDP udp = (UDP) channel.getProtocolStack().findProtocol(UDP.class);
> 		log.info(udp.getInfo());
> }
> Unfortunately log.info() shows that channel is connected to 239.192.0.5 instead of IP configured in my-udp.xml. 
> It is a big problem when you want to connect from jboss to two different groups with two different multicast addresses.
