["Bob Schellink (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-661?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12917285#action_12917285 ] 

Bob Schellink commented on CLK-661:
-----------------------------------

I think the latest patch  looks good and should go in for 2.3.0-M1.

We just need to ensure that CLK-704 (which was added to trunk after the patch) is merged in.

> click.xml has grown over the years especially since we introduced the service based architecture. Some of the problems with xml based configurations is:
> - no compile time checking
> - no JavaDoc help in IDE
> I propose we add a new DefaultConfigService class that is Java based which XmlConfigService extends from.
> Its advantages is the polar opposite of xml disadvantage:
> - compile time checking
> - JavaDoc help in IDE
> - More powerful configuration options, e.g. its possible to configure FileUpload in ways not exposed by xml config. Also possible to create more powerful algorithms e.g. which templates to include/exclude.
