Seam should load component properties found on seam.properties files found on
jar files on classpath
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-4741
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-4741
Project: Seam
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Core, Documentation Issues
Affects Versions: 2.2.0.GA
Reporter: Bruno Souza
Priority: Minor
In Seam documentation, section 5.1
(http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.2.0.GA/en-US/html/xml.html#d0e4417) states that:
"Seam components may be provided with configuration properties either via ....,
or via a properties file named seam.properties in the root of the classpath."
This information mislead the reader which thinks that every seam.properties
file found on jar files that contains Seam components can/will be used to
configure Seam components.
This interpretation has lead to some inquiries on Seam user forum about the
feature of seam.properties not working as expected, see:
(http://seamframework.org/Community/SeampropertiesAndComponentsproperties)
(http://seamframework.org/Community/DifferenceBetweenSeampropertiesAndComponentsxml)
and
(http://seamframework.org/Community/ReadPropertiesFromSeampropertiesForUnitTestWithTestNG)
I think that if Seam scans jar files to found seam.properties to mark those
archives as containers of Seam components, it can load those properties files
and use information found on them to configure the components.
Looking at the source of Initialization.create(), it seems to me that the
implementation of this suggestion is alredy implemented on the
Initialization.initComponentsFromXmlDocuments which do what I suggest but with
the components.xml files.
