[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1596) Allow to configure a channel with properties as well as url

[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1596?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12754924#comment-12754924 ] 

Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1596:
--------------------------------

I don't see what value this brings to the table, but the 'overrides' properties map would have to be added as additional parameter to all constructors, which adds a lot of code.

You could easily write a factory method in your application code which creates a JChannel and applies the properties.

> Currently, if I want to start 2 channels with the same configuration file, I'll get a lot of "discarded message from different cluster". I can use system properties to tweak the port setting in the file, but this is not thread safe. 
> I suggest adding a constructor `public JChannel(URL properties, Properties vars) throws Exception` that will use the 'vars' properties to interpolate the variables found in the properties file.
