Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-2225:
------------------------------------------
Implemented improvements in Rev. 1172508. The Main class now has an officially
extensible API:
Main(Map<String, String> properties) -- creates the Main class with
configuration properties
doControlCommand() -- handles the start, stop, and status command line
options
(reflected as sling.control.action configuration property in the
constructor)
doStart() -- start Sling
doStop() -- stop Sling
The main(String[] args) method still is present for the Java VM to start Sling.
It is in this method, that documented command line options are parsed and
converted into a map of properties to be used for the actual Sling startup.
> Improve support for embedding the Sling Launcher in Java applications

> Key: SLING-2225
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2225
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Launchpad
> Affects Versions: Launchpad Base 2.3.0
> Reporter: Felix Meschberger
> Assignee: Felix Meschberger
> Fix For: Launchpad Base 2.4.0
>
>
> The only way to embed the Sling launcher today is to build an array of
> command line options and call the static Main.main(String[] args) method from
> the application. This is kind of weird and only allows a small subset of
> configuration properties to be easily supplied by the calling application.
> In addition the handling of command line options is currently split between
> the Main and the MainDelagate class: The Main class implements the usage
> functionality (for the -h command line option) while the MainDelegate class
> implements the actual conversion of command line options to internal
> configuration property. This should be improved in that the support for real
> command lines should be consolidated in the Main class and the map of
> configuration properties supplied to the MainDelagate class should only
> contain actual configuration properties.
