Yes and no. Avalon containers provide their own "Confiuguration" objects to the contained application. This means that the config.xml is a container file and not an application file and IS container specific. We include a "phoenix specific" config.xml that works fine when read by phoenix "NamespacedSAXConfigurationParser". Loom use the same name "config.xml" and the same notation to configure the applications but use it's own jar to handle the parsing. This is not configurable and we would have to change the loom source code to alter it. > > Probably phoenix-trunk is the solution but I'm not sure it's stable > > and I don't know what the features of phoenix-trunk are: probably I > > should build the phoenix-trunk website from trunk to find > more informations. > Wouldn't take far less time to investigate the 'space > problem' instead? > > Considering that you have at least the fact that LOOM WAS > working for you, except that space? I think this is a big argument. phoenix-trunk is also working for me now that Loom helped me fixing james.sar incompatibilities. And we don't want to distribute an application that "works for me": we want to distribute an application that just works for most people. > > You will just need to download loom, place your james.sar (latest > > trunk will create a james.sar compatible with > loom/phoenix-trunk) in > > its apps folder and remove spaces in your config.xml. > > Just execute "run.bat" or "run.sh" and it works. > This seems OK, but I still think that if LOOM is good, it > should be used by default, and those with FUD should just > investigate/test, and bring proofs, not just FUD, period :). I don't know if LOOM is better than phoenix-trunk. I started this discussion with a question "should we move to loom?" and I haven't made a proposal because I need a more clear scenario to make any proposal around this issue. I just "currently" think that the space issue is blocking. I don't understand why most of the replies have been around the <data-source> issue and the fact the loom is dead that IMHO are non-existing issues, but the whole thread is helping me.
