---------------------------------
Assignee: Bob Paulin
> [Framework] Move OS and processor aliases to configuration properties
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-3883
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3883
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Framework
> Affects Versions: framework-4.2.0
> Reporter: Richard S. Hall
> Assignee: Bob Paulin
> Fix For: framework-4.6.0
>
>
> Currently, we hard code our OS and processor aliases for matching native code
> libraries. This is bad since it requires us to edit source code to add
> aliases. It would be better if we moved these to configuration properties,
> something like this:
> felix.native.os.[normalname] = alias1, alias2, etc.
> felix.native.arch.[normalname] = alias1, alias2, etc.
> More concretely:
> felix.native.os.win32 = Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista
> felix.native.arch.x86 = i386, i486, i586
> We could then use the properties to define as many "normal names" as we want
> and associate all their known aliases, so at run time all names could be
> normalized.
> We can include a default set of normal names and aliases in
> default.properties, but allow people to override any of them (or add new
> normal names/aliases) in config.properties.
