----------------------------------------------
Summary: Enable factory lookup logic to look for symbols in the
application
Key: GEODE-8735
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-8735
Project: Geode
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: native client
Affects Versions: 1.13.1
Reporter: Mario Salazar de Torres
*AS A* native client contributor
*I WANT* to be able to specify factory names within the application space
*SO THAT* the user does not need to create a separate shared library to load
several items like partition resolvers, cache loaders, cache writers, partition
resolvers...
----
*Additional information*
The rationale for this change is that if the user wants to declaratively
specify a partition resolver, right now the only way is by creating the shared
library.
So the idea would be to change the current factory implementation, so library
name is an optional field, and whenever "library-name" is not specified, the
client will look for symbols within the application instead.
*For example:*
Using this region definition:
{code:xml}
<region name="region_part_a">
<region-attributes refid="CACHING_PROXY"
pool-name="partitioned-pool">
<partition-resolver library-function-name="createPartitionResolver"/>
</region-attributes>
</region>
{code}
And within the application defining this function:
{code:cpp}
APPLICATION_EXPORT PartitionResolver* createPartitionResolver()
{
return new StringPrefixPartitionResolver{};
}
{code}
You could declaratively create a region which uses the
StringPrefixPartitionResolver.
*IMPORTANT.* Take into account that documentation should be updated in order to
indicate that library-name will become an optional field and what it means
whenever it's not present.
