[jira] [Commented] (SLING-5837) Allow ResourceChangeListeners to define glob patterns for resource matching

["Oliver Lietz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5837?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15374831#comment-15374831 ] 

Oliver Lietz commented on SLING-5837:
-------------------------------------

Our paths are resource (JCR) paths and _not_ file system paths. So I have concerns regarding the implementation as it uses classes from {{java.nio.file}} which are platform dependent and _may_ lead to different results. Can we rule out such cases?

> While the previous way to interact with Resource change events through registering {{EventHandler}} sevices allowed defining glob patterns for matching the watched paths, the current state of the {{org.apache.sling.api.resource.observation.ResourceChangeListener}} only allows subscribing to events for concrete paths.
> In order to allow for the same filtering flexibility, {{ResourceChangeListener}} should also accept glob patterns for its {{resource.paths}} configuration property.
