Ross Laidlaw commented on OODT-452:
-----------------------------------
When building OODT, the following code in assembly.xml (in
_filemgr/src/main/assembly_) copies the contents of the
_filemgr/src/main/resources/examples_ directory to the _filemgr/policy_
directory in the build target:
{code}
<fileSet>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/resources/examples</directory>
<outputDirectory>policy</outputDirectory>
<includes/>
</fileSet>
{code}
It also copies subdirectories and their contents too. This means that the
newly created _core_ and _geo_ subdirectories will be copied over along with
any files they contain. I've checked the [documentation for the maven assembly
plugin|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html] and
this is by design rather than by accident:
_"When <include> subelements are present, they define a set of project
coordinates to include. If none is present, then <includes> represents all
valid values..."_
I've tested this by building the latest OODT trunk and confirming that the
_core_ and _geo_ directories and contents were copied over to the target policy
directory, as expected.
This means that in the future we could add more example configurations as
subdirectories and these would automatically be picked up.
Therefore, to complete this task, all that's required is for a committer to
perform svn moves for the three core files and commit the changes. As far as I
can see, no further actions would be required (i.e. no modifications to any
other files), because I have made these changes locally and none of the tests
for the build were affected.
As a newly appointed OODT committer I'd be happy to move and commit the files
if the OODT team are happy for me to go ahead.
Following the changes, to access the core files the filemgr.properties file can
be updated reference the _policy/core_ subdirectory rather than the _policy_
directory, for example as follows:
{code}
org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.repositorymgr.dirs=file:///usr/local/oodt/cas-filemgr/policy/core
org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.validation.dirs=file:///usr/local/oodt/cas-filemgr/policy/core
{code}
> Move the default File Manager policy files to 'core' subdirectory

> Move the current contents of
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/oodt/trunk/filemgr/src/main/resources/examples,
> i.e. the default File Manager policy files 'elements.xml',
> 'product-types.xml' and 'product-type-element-map.xml' to a subdirectory
> named 'core', i.e.:
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/oodt/trunk/filemgr/src/main/resources/examples/core.
> (ensure assembly.xml, unit tests, etc still work after moving!)
