How about we have one small config file to start everything up and then use, I don't know, how about an xml document in a collection for the rest :-). Mark "Vladimir R. Bossicard" wrote: > > But I think that some configuration along these lines would be extremely > > simple to implement and prov

I must confess ignorance of Avalon and its configuration management capabilities, but I will be reading the docs soon. As I said, I'm happy to implement this config either from within system.xml or in a seperate config file for version 1.1. I personally think the simplest way is for the informati

I think that a driver should not be configured at all in a complex way. A driver should be ready for use right away, with no need to locate a configuration file on a filesystem, this is why I'm more or less OK with System.setProperty: I want to embed all the configuration data on a URL, like JD

As you might have noticed, I commited some new code in scratchpad. It's nothing special, and it's far from being finished, but I felt that it was much better to put it in CVS so that interested parties might discuss it and participate in the development. Just to make things clear, I'm strongly
