Clement Escoffier resolved FELIX-629. ------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Resolved in the 675569 revision. Allows an instance configuration to contain complex types. Now an instance configuration can contain properties like : <instance component="org.apache.felix.ipojo.test.scenarios.component.ComplexConfiguration" name="complex"> <property name="array" type="array"> <!-- creates an array --> <property value="a"/> <property value="b"/> </property> <property name="list" type="list"> <!-- creates a list --> <property value="a"/> <property value="b"/> </property> <property name="dict" type="dictionary"> <!-- creates a dictionary (default case) --> <property name="a" value="a"/> <property name="b" value="b"/> </property> <property name="map" type="map"> <!-- creates a map --> <property name="a" value="a"/> <property name="b" value="b"/> </property> <property name="complex-array" type="array"> <!-- creates an array containing lists --> <property type="list"> <property value="a"/> <property value="b"/> </property> <property type="list"> <property value="c"/> <property value="d"/> </property> </property> <property name="complex-list" type="list"> <!-- creates a list containing lists --> <property type="list"> <property value="a"/> <property value="b"/> </property> <property type="list"> <property value="c"/> <property value="d"/> </property> </property> <property name="complex-map" type="map"> <!-- creates a map containing lists --> <property name="a" type="list"> <property value="a"/> <property value="b"/> </property> <property name="b" type="list"> <property value="c"/> <property value="d"/> </property> </property> </instance> As illustrated, any complex type can contain any complex type (and obviously itself). When no sub-property is declared, an empty structure is returned. The patch contains also code allowing to use [...] to describe an array instead of {...}. So it is possible to write something like : <property name="foo" type="String[]" value="[a, b, c]"/>. This is equivalent to the existing syntax : <property name="foo" type="String[]" value="{a, b, c}"/> > Allows instance configuration to declares complex properties > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: FELIX-629 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-629 > Project: Felix > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: iPOJO > Affects Versions: iPOJO-0.8.0 > Reporter: Clement Escoffier > Assignee: Clement Escoffier > Original Estimate: 0h > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > Instance configurations contain properties. These properties are name-value > pair. The value has two possible type : String or another Dictionary. This > allows creating deep structure. However, these structure are limited to > Dictionary. > The purpose of this issue is to provide other types such as array, list, and > map. Then, an instance configuration can receive directly a Map, a List or > an Array (Object array or String array) directly. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
