simplify configuration file loading
-----------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-971
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-971
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
Assignee: Jonathan Ellis
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.7
Currently we can load the configuration file from (a) a full path specified by
-Dstorage-config, or (b) "storage.conf.xml" located anywhere on the classpath
(filename may not be changed).
I think we should figure out what The Right Thing is to do here, and then do
it, instead of trying multiple guesses in an effort to prevent ... what?
ISTM that the java idiom here is, look for a default filename on the classpath,
and allow customizing that name w/ a system property, but when taking the
property ONLY the filename is customized, not the full path. This is what
log4j does, for instance.
