Richard S. Hall commented on FELIX-2663:
----------------------------------------

File Install just needs to use BundleContext.getProperty() for its property 
lookup instead of calling System.getProperty() directly, since the former 
already exposes system properties unless they are overwritten by configuration 
properties.

> Allow ConfigInstaller to perform placeholder substitution from framework 
> properties

> The ConfigInstaller class will perform placeholder substitution using 
> configuration values defined elsewhere in the .cfg file or using System 
> properties.  Would be nice if it could also use properties defined by the 
> framework (i.e. BundleContext.getProperty())
> The use case is this:  As part of the OSGi framework initialization, some 
> properties are set on the framework that define things such as a "home" 
> directory.  The various configuration files could then refer to resources 
> relative to this "home" directory.  For example:
> props.setProperty("app.home", homeDir); // homeDir provided by JNDI config, 
> env variable, etc.
> frameworkFactory.newFramework(props);
> ...
> Then, in a configuration file read by the FileInstall bundle, it would be 
> nice to be able to do:
> data.directory=${app.home}/data/
