Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1126:
-------------------------------------------
I'd be fine with a -Dcassandra.yaml=X that gives a different filename, to load
from the classpath. Absolute paths are just not the way we do things, in java.
:)
> Allow loading of cassandra.yaml from a location off the classpath

> Key: CASSANDRA-1126
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1126
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 0.7
> Reporter: Erik Onnen
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 0.7
>
> Attachments: DatabaseDescriptor.java.patch
>
>
> As a convenience, predominantly for testing but also for some levels of
> automated ops, it would be helpful to allow cassandra.yaml to be specified
> explicitly during startup as opposed to always reading it from the classpath
> which cannot be altered at runtime (not easily anyway).
> Sample patch attached that reads -D property cassandra.conf and gives it
> preference over any entry on the classpath.
