[jira] Created: (LAUNCHER-6) Launcher support for multiple config files.

Launcher support for multiple config files.
-------------------------------------------

                 Key: LAUNCHER-6
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LAUNCHER-6
             Project: Commons Launcher
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: Nightly Builds, 1.0 Alpha
         Environment: All platforms
            Reporter: Rick Moynihan
            Priority: Minor


Hi.  I have a requirement to support multiple launcher xml files for managing services using launcher.  To do this requires a minor 2 line change in the Launcher.java file.

The fix basically just involves enabling the ant ImportTask, allowing you to import other launcher files, allowing partitioning of launcher scripts etc, thus enabling greater reuse of code between them.

Also the echo task is not available.  This is useful as it allows the launcher script to display information to the user prior to instantiating the application.

I'll try and attach the required (trivial) patch.

[jira] Updated: (LAUNCHER-6) Launcher support for multiple config files.

Posted by "Rick Moynihan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LAUNCHER-6?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Rick Moynihan updated LAUNCHER-6:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: launcher-tasks.patch

Patch to enable the ImportTask and the EchoTask.  This allows launcher to make use of multiple launch files (allowing greater reuse of configuration code):

<import file="base-launcher.xml"/>


Enabling echo allows launcher scripts to output information to the user through the use of:

<echo message="hello"/>
