             Summary: Regularize expression handling in the interface resources
                 Key: AS7-3772
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3772
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Domain Management
    Affects Versions: 7.1.0.Final
            Reporter: Brian Stansberry
            Assignee: Brian Stansberry
             Fix For: 7.2.0.Alpha1


The interface resource code predates the evolution of the AttributeDefinition classes. Convert it over to that and make sure the xml parsers, operation step handlers and ParsedInterfaceCriteria follow the standard practices. Basically,

1) Use AD.parseAndSet() in the parsers. This will ensure parsing any criteria type that supports expressions will result in values of type EXPRESSION if appropriate.
2) Use AD.validateAndSet() in the MODEL stage of the OSH. This will ensure reading in input values from the CLI/console etc for any criteria type that supports expressions will result in values of type EXPRESSION if appropriate.
3) Pass the OperationContext into ParsedInterfaceCriteria and use AD.resolveModelAttribute() for resolution.

This may not be entirely possible, as interface criteria as a bit unusual types of attributes. But the general intent here should be followed.
