[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-1177) Recursive expression resolution

[John Mazzitelli (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1177?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12771132#comment-12771132 ] 

John Mazzitelli commented on WFLY-1177:
---------------------------------------

Just wanted to make sure this fix includes my use-case where a sysprop value itself has an expression in it for ssl config settings.

ca-certificate-file and certificate-key-file attributes on ssl=configuration resource - if you set one of those to:

${x}

and x is a system prop whose actual value has an expression in it such as:

${jboss.server.config.dir}/my.keystore

we need it resolved fully for the web connector to start properly.

> When resolving an expression, keep resolving until the output of the resolution matches the input.
> Use case:
> ${sys.prop.with.host.specific.value}
> resolves to
> ${VAULT::xxxxx}
> which resolves to
> thesecret
> Basically, the main mechanism for customizing domain-level configs on a per-host basis is to use expressions and use different values on each host. But this breaks down when a vault expression is added to the mix.
