[jira] Commented: (FELIX-380) provide configuration.properties in the framework.jar by default

Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-380:
---------------------------------------

After thinking about this with Costin, I agree it could be possible to do something reasonable. Effectively, we could embed a stripped down config.properties file in our launcher (i.e., main.jar), but have main.jar still search for "conf/config.properties". If it finds the file, it uses the file contents as the configuration properties, otherwise it uses the embedded config.properties file.

Does that seem like a reasonable approach?

If so, what should be in the embedded config.properties file? Just the framework exported packages? Or framework exported and JRE packages? I assume no "auto" properties.

> Even when using just the framework felix as an embedded library, it is helpful to have the default configuration.properties (which specifies the packages) loaded automatically and present in the jar.
> The configuration could be overwritten at startup so clients that want different packages can do that while clients that do not interact with this aspect can have a resonable default loaded for them (which is our case = Spring OSGi).
