[jira] [Updated] (ACCUMULO-123) Dynamically generate configuration documentation

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-123?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Keith Turner updated ACCUMULO-123:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
The configuration documentation page is generated as a static html page at build time.  There are a few drawbacks to this:
 
 * If the build process fails, it will generate an incorrect page.  Currently I think the build process only works correctly if the maven scripts are run twice.
 * If someone changes the configuration names or defaults in the code, but forgets to check in the updated html page then its out of sync.

It would be better if the monitor just generated the page dynamically.  The documentation html page could link to a servlet in the monitor.
