Add plugin-search-path option for plug-in loading.
--------------------------------------------------
Key: QPID-2571
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-2571
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C++ Broker, C++ Client
Affects Versions: 0.7
Reporter: Alan Conway
Assignee: Alan Conway
Goal: remove absolute paths and platform-specific suffixes from config files
- use same config in different installations or on different platforms
- enable writing portable config files for examples and doc
- simplify test-setup where plugins are loaded from non-default or multiple
directories.
Example
plugin-search-path=dir1:dir2 or plugin-search-path=dir1;dir2
load-plugin=foo
This would check dir1/foo.so, dir2/foo.so on linux and dir1/foo.dll... on
windows.
If the load-plugin value contains / or \ then it is used verbatim with no search
plugin-search-path default value would include the default
installed plugin directory(s). Setting plugin-search-path wouldn
override default path (not extend it)
Re windows vs. unix separators is it better to
- recognize both on both platforms (i.e. allow \ or / and ; or :)
- recognize only the native one (/ and : on unix, \ and ; on windows)
- use unix convention on both platforms (always / and :)
Note this affects broker and client plug-ins.
