--------------------------------------
Summary: Jcr Installer Provider only supports storing array values
for OSGi Component Properties but not java.util.Vector
Key: SLING-4183
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4183
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Installer
Affects Versions: JCR Installer 3.1.8
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
The OSGi Compendium 4.3.0, $105.14.3.13 defines two storage formats for
multivalue entries: one is vector and the other one is array.
As long as a configuration is maintained via the Felix Webconsole, it will
stick to the data format being given in the metatype manifest (through the
cardinality attribute).
If the JCR Installer is used to deploy the OSGi configuration it will always
use array, in case the property is a multivalue property in the JCR
(https://github.com/apache/sling/blob/trunk/installer/providers/jcr/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/installer/provider/jcr/impl/ConfigNodeConverter.java#L99)
In the best case the JCR Installer should evaluate the metatype manifest as
well. Or it should support {{Vector}}s through some special prefix on a
multivalue property name.
