Sling Feature Launcher Extensions with FM?

[Andreas Schaefer <sc...@me.com.INVALID>]

Hi

This might be overkill but I was wondering that if the list of extensions gets longer that handing them over to the launcher might be a longer list or it might be hard to manage.

I was wondering if it would make sense to use a Feature Model to define them and then the Feature Launcher would load them into its class loader because the target FM is actually loaded.

Cheers - Andy

I guess this creates kind of a chicken-egg problem - the launcher might 
need an extension to properly process a feature model. Solveable of course.

I don't think that we will end up with that many extensions, so it 
should be manageable.
