[jira] [Commented] (TAP5-1930) Feature request: SymbolSource.getSymbolNames()

["Borut Bolcina (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1930?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13577589#comment-13577589 ] 

Borut Bolcina commented on TAP5-1930:
-------------------------------------

Yes, that would be of great benefit. One could inject SymbolSource into service and then dynamically build "things" in that service based on defined symbols in the properties file for example.

This way you do not have to touch the source code, compile and deploy, but only modify configuration file (property file), or if symbols are coming from database - change some records, and the application would be dynamically configured.

> I'm currently integrating DWR with Tapestry and I'd like to pass all of the "dwr.*" symbols from tapestry to DWR. At the moment, I need to hard code the possible symbol names and try/catch RuntimeException around SymbolSource.valueForSymbol(symbolName) for each possible symbol.
> It would be great if the following method could be added to SymbolSource
>     public Collection<String> getSymbolNames()
