I've got a use case in which I'd like to run the framework in a Hadoop cluster, and the users would want to store their cfg files on hdfs.
Making config admin support this would not be terribly complex -- if the minimum java version were 7. What is the current version base? Another possible issue is the general problem of using registered non-default FileSystemProviders in OSGi. To use the straightforward uri-to-Path code path, the provider has to be in the system classloader. So, if someone wants to set the config admin dir property to 'hdfs://something', then either they need to arrange that file system provider into the outer class loader, or code in config admin has to use some servicemix-ish scheme to provide alternative registration of providers. Selfishly, I can imagine a config admin property that can be used to declare one or more providers. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
