[Akshay6787 <ak...@gmail.com>]

Hi, 
i have declared  my custom properties file path  in nifi.properties  to
variable 'nifi.variable.registry.properties=custom.properties' 
.i want my processors to pickup the new value of the property when the
chnages are made to a property.I have loaded the updated properties in the
code(FileBasedVariableRegistry.java).but processors takes old values.. 

Thanks.

AFAIK this is not currently possible, if you want to use a file then
you must restart NiFi. Alternatively as of NiFi 1.4.0, you can set
variables on a process group (including the top-level "root" group),
you can change those without restarting NiFi. I answered a similar
question on StackOverflow recently [1].

Regards,
Matt
