[jira] [Updated] (ACE-402) Change file repository layoout and prefs usage

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACE-402?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Bram de Kruijff updated ACE-402:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
ACE-391 added optional configuration to the file repositories, but there are still two concerns that I would like to address which are not strictly backward compatible.

1) The RepositoryFactory assigns working directories based on the PID which is a hard to interpret randomly generated number. As we have logical concepts as 'customer' and 'name' for repositories I suggest to use those (in a fs safe fashion) instead.

Eg.

current layout       : <basedir>/<pid>/<revision><extension>
proposed layout   : <basedir>/<customer>/<name>/<revision>[extension]

2) The RepositoryFactory uses prefs (keeping unsafe refs which is a bug) for, AFAICS, the sole purpose of guaridng uniqueness of customer/name combination. Addressing the layout as described in 1 voids the need for prefs altogether so I ould like to remove it.
