Underneath the geronimo-connector-builder, a couple of codes in the
ConnectorModuleBuilder.java like this:
if (attributeInfo == null) {
String originalName = name;
name = switchCase(name);
attributeInfo = gbeanData.getGBeanInfo().getAttribute(name);
if (attributeInfo == null) {
unknownNames.add(originalName);
continue;
}
}
that is caused by some of the properties in the rar plan always prefer the
Upper case word as the name, such as
<config-property-setting name="Password"/>
<config-property-setting name="LoginTimeout"/>
<config-property-setting
name="DatabaseName">SystemDatabase</config-property-setting>
<config-property-setting name="UserName"/>
A jira is opened for that in the past(G-4131).
I think there might be a little bit difference with the blueprint, our plan
file is more like used by a user to config a application, but the purpose of
blueprint which grasp the sprit of spring framework is to provide a
convienent way for application developer to assemble javabeans to some
extent, isn't it?
