-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> Automatic loading of conflicting plug-ins
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: QPID-2572
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-2572
> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++ Broker
> Affects Versions: 0.7
> Reporter: Alan Conway
> Assignee: Alan Conway
> Priority: Minor
>
> Thread http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@qpid.apache.org/msg08762.html may result in an alternate clustering plugin that uses the same amq.failover mechanism as the existing cluster plugin - well and good that's what plugins are for. The new plugin could not be loaded at the same time as the existing cluster plugin as they'd conflict over setting amq.failover exchange, also not surprising.
> However our existing plugin loading scheme is:
> - install every plugin in lib/qpid/daemon
> - by default load every plugin from lib/qpid/daemon
> This breaks if we have conflicting plug-ins.
> I see 3 solutions:
> 1. Put conflicting plugins in a new dirctory say lib/qpid/daemon_optional. User must load these explicitly in config if wanted.
> 2. Ship a default config with
> no-module-dir=yes # disable default loading
> load-plugin=foo # for all foo we want to load by default.
> 3. Change the default module-dir to be none, load no plugins by default. Ship a config file with explict load-plugin=foo for all foo we want to load by default.
> I prefer 3 as it simplifies things a little and maintains the "0 config gives sensible behavior" principle - 0 config means no plugins as opposed to try to load conflicting plugins. It does mean users would have to change their existing configs.
> See also QPID-2571 which would simplify the default configs proposed in 2 & 3
