Guillaume Nodet commented on SMX4KNL-152:
-----------------------------------------
So the goal is to be able to display informations about the application using
an embedded ServiceMix Kernel.
The first obvious example is the full Smx4 distribution, which has a different
version.
I guess the kernel should display its own version along with the version of the
embedding application.
So there are two places that are affected: the banner displayed when the
console is started and the Info command.
I'm not sure that using a properties file from the kit is the way to go, i
would rather try to use a file embedded in a jar
instead, as such informations are not supposed to be changed by the end user.
So we need to define somewhere a location that will be looked by the kernel to
load the attributes of the branding.
In the InfoAction class, we need to display both the kernel version and the
application version if it has been defined.
Note that currently, the kernel version is hardcoded in the gshell.xml spring
config file and should be retrieved
from the servicemix-version.properties file instead ...
Remember that in OSGi, access to resources is limited by the way the
classloader is set up, so it might make sense
to first try with a plain property file in a known location like
${servicemix.home}/etc, and then figure out if we can use
resources for that.

> Hi Guillaume,

> thanks, Edell.
