Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-1009:
---------------------------------------------
I won't argue that the JSSE properties *must* come from the system properties,
but you're shooting yourself in the foot if you're rewriting custom socket code
to accept them anywhere else, and somebody's going to have to maintain that
additional code.
At the very least, I still think using the JSSE properties are essential... I
just won't argue they have to be set as system properties (which are global).
They could just as well come from a client config file. What I wouldn't want to
see is custom config key names that users have to relearn, but essentially map
to the same functionality as the JSSE ones they're already familiar with. At
that point, it'd be like adding new words to a dictionary, whose definitions
are "see some_other_word".
As for the client configuration, I don't mind them crossing paths at this
point... but, if we're going to do the additional effort in the future to
better scope configuration to the objects they configure at some point (and I
hope we are), I don't want to be stuck with the paths being crossed in the API.
For that reason, I would not put the static method on AccumuloConfiguration.
I'd keep it a completely separate thing (in fact, I'd probably keep it a simple
commons-configuration Configuration object). If we need reuse, I'd tie it
underneath, so when we do the effort of better scoping configuration in the
future, it won't disrupt the API, where users interact.
