-------------------------------------

             Summary: Deprecate old JGroups properties syntax
                 Key: ARTEMIS-2469
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2469
             Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Igor Korolev


Quoting the [doc|[https://activemq.apache.org/components/artemis/documentation/latest/using-jms.html]]:
{noformat}
Lastly, the jgroups scheme is supported which provides an alternative to the udp scheme for server discovery. The URL pattern is either jgroups://channelName?file=jgroups-xml-conf-filename where jgroups-xml-conf-filename refers to an XML file on the classpath that contains the JGroups configuration or it can be jgroups://channelName?properties=some-jgroups-properties. In both instance the channelName is the name given to the jgroups channel created.{noformat}
The problem is that the latter syntax (one without an XML file) relies on the JGroups old-style config parser, which was removed in JGroups 4. I suggest to deprecate it, remove it from the docs and at some point drop it from the code so that it allows us to upgrade to JGruops 4+ in the future.
