We could use a number of backing formats for our configuration information,
and they would all have their plusses and minuses. Unless we provide a GUI
tool to allow the adiminstrator to update the settings, no solution will be
truly simple for the administrator. So what could be done in a nice generic
way? Hmmm. There is this standard called JMX which might be able to help
in this regard.... However we don't know enough about it right now.
What we do is read in the config.xml as usual and then allow the operators to change settings via the JMX management console (Phoenix). It would be very useful if there were an option to write the changes back to the config.xml just like Tomcat writes to server.xml.
