Supporting hierarchical service deployment in Axis2 ---------------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-4479 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4479 Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2) Issue Type: Improvement Components: deployment Reporter: Isuru Eranga Suriarachchi Currently Axis2 can only deploy services at the repository/services level. This makes it impossible to deploy several versions of the same service. Therefore, I've improved our deployment engine to deploy services by looking at the hierarchical path of the service. For example this allows us to deploy a service repository/services/foo/bar/version.aar. And also this allows us to deploy any number of services as follows. repository/services/versionService/1.0.0/version.aar repository/services/versionService/1.0.1/version.aar In the implementation, I've attached the hierarchical part of the service (versionService/1.0.1/) in front of the service name which is read from the services.xml. And also I've fixed the URI based dispatching logics to dispatch the services correctly. This improvement doesn't affect any of the existing functionalities. The only limitation of this is we can't deploy a RESTful service in this manner. Those can only be supported at repository/service level. That is because, incoming URL of a RESTful service can contain '/' separated parameters to the service. I'm attaching the patch with this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
