Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-2477:
------------------------------------------
I support the general idea.
Yet, I suggest we use the same encoding for string values as we do the
configuration properties files supported by JCR Install.
Clarification: JCR typing and Configuration Admin typing are overlapping.
Neither is a subset of the other.
> Configuration via sling:OsgiConfig nodes does not support all types

> Key: SLING-2477
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2477
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Installer
> Affects Versions: JCR Installer 3.1.2
> Reporter: Alexander Klimetschek
>
> Most notably, the common "service.ranking" needs to be an Integer, while the
> jcr property mapping only allows for "Long" types at the moment. The problem
> is that JCR has a smaller set of property types than the OSGi config admin
> (JCR: String, Boolean, Long, Double, Decimal; OSGi: String, Boolean, Long,
> Integer, Float, Double, and probably more differences...).
> Similarly to properties files (which do it in the value like
> 'service.ranking=I"-10000"' with I=Integer), there must be a way to
> explicitly specify the type regardless of the JCR type. For example, encoding
> it in the property name like "service.ranking{int}".
