Ted Zlatanov commented on CASSANDRA-1000: ----------------------------------------- IMO the Converter class should output to STDOUT. Let the user/sysadmin/installer worry about capturing that into a file and running it as a user with write permissions. Maybe give it an optional flag to write to a file but don't make it the default mode. > Create migratory program to generate YAML from existing XML > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-1000 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1000 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Task > Components: Core > Reporter: Todd Blose > Assignee: Todd Blose > Attachments: CASSANDRA-1000.patch > > > This is to ensure existing users will have no issues making the transition to > YAML (CASSANDRA-990). > This will be a new Java program (that can be run via a shell script in bin) > to convert an existing XML config to YAML. The converter program will extract > the config values from the XML, and build a new YAML document according to > the schema outlined in CASSANDRA-990. The new config will reside in the same > location as the previous config. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
