Re: question regarding upgrading jetspeed and property file synchronization

[Pat Ryan <pr...@cardean.edu>]

Thanks

I see how I might overwrite some values, but how would you suggest I append or
prepend my information.  For example:

services.VelocityService.file.resource.loader.path=<my path here>,<what ever
Jetspeed came with>

Thanks again
Pat

BTW:  I noticed in the TurbineResources.properties for the modules.packages
property the property is listed like:
modules.packages=org.apache.jetspeed.modules
modules.packages=org.apache.turbine.modules

Is the property loader in turbine additive?  Does one of the above override the
other?

RE: question regarding upgrading jetspeed and property file synchronization

[David Sean Taylor <da...@bluesunrise.com>]

Actually I don't think that they get overwritten, but instead the first
occurence becomes the first entry in a string array.
You can have multiple module entries and turbine wil automatically merge
them into a string array.
I believe this is always the case for strings
When getString is called, it returns the first occurence in the array
For other data types it seems to throw exceptions
