After digging around with the PhoenixJMS block and looking at some of the things that people are doing, I'm comming to the conclusion that we should seperate the local repository used by merlin during bootstrap from the local repository we use for the client.
The reasons are:
(a) that it is really easy to screw up the merlin installation
if a client copies content into the repository that overrides
merlin jars (b) if the system and client repositories are seperate, then
system updates become more predictable (we can just delete
the repostory and add the new one)The ability to do this is actually already in place in the code as this is what happens when you use the -system command option. All that would be needed is for the the default system repository to point to something different such as "%MERLIN_HOME%\system" while the user repository would continue to point to "%MERLIN_HOME%\repository".
Thoughts?
Steve.
