Brian Stansberry commented on AS7-2015:
---------------------------------------

With standalone.sh/.bat, -c=foo.xml or -c foo.xml now has the same semantic as --server-config=foo.xml.

With domain.sh/.bat, -c=foo.xml or -c foo.xml now has the same semantic as --domain-config=foo.xml.

> In AS7 -c foo.xml would be a shorthand for --server-config=foo.xml
> I don't like that because:
> a) It's only a rough translation of what -c meant in AS < 7. People
> would have to read docs to figure out how to use it, so is there much
> benefit?
> b) There's no clean equivalent for domain.sh. It could be a shorthand
> for --domain-config=foo.xml but it could also be a shorthand for
> --host-config=foo.xml. So which?
> (I could be convinced to support -c=foo.xml as a shorthand for
> -server-config=foo.xml and --domain-config=foo.xml if I feel people
> understand the issues and still want it. I've had conversations with
> people about it before, but they've gotten sidetracked when other things
> came up. And I could be much more easily be convinced by a nice patch.)
> So does -c become -dc and -hc then?
> I think this also dovetails into a discussion about how do I clone an instance and start it up 3 or 4 times on a IP address.  Customers have done this for sure, and I do this in labs/cookbooks?
