--------------------------------------
Summary: [Framework] Move OS and processor aliases to
configuration properties
Key: FELIX-3883
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3883
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Framework
Affects Versions: framework-4.2.0
Reporter: Richard S. Hall
Fix For: framework-4.4.0
Currently, we hard code our OS and processor aliases for matching native code
libraries. This is bad since it requires us to edit source code to add aliases.
It would be better if we moved these to configuration properties, something
like this:
felix.native.os.[normalname] = alias1, alias2, etc.
felix.native.arch.[normalname] = alias1, alias2, etc.
More concretely:
felix.native.os.win32 = Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista
felix.native.arch.x86 = i386, i486, i586
We could then use the properties to define as many "normal names" as we want
and associate all their known aliases, so at run time all names could be
normalized.
We can include a default set of normal names and aliases in default.properties,
but allow people to override any of them (or add new normal names/aliases) in
config.properties.
