Well you need to explain your thoughts more :)
The goal of xwiki.properties is to:
- define config values even when there’s no wiki page
- define config values for all wikis
Also note that we have a global Configuration system. You just ask for a
property value knowing it’s name and it’ll find it for you by looking in all
places. Those places are configurable (it can be in a properties file, in LDAP,
in a DB, in wiki pages, etc).
The issue I was raising is that we’re naming properties with
“<module>.<name>[.<subname>]” in xwiki.properties while this is not a current
convention in xproperties (actually we don’t have any convention ATM for
xproperty naming AFAIK, sometimes it’s with “_” as in “smtp_host”, sometimes
it’s in camelcase as in “displayHiddenDocuments" , sometimes with “.” as in
“xwiki.preferences.redirect”).
Thanks
