Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-7757:
----------------------------------------
Now that JSON format is fully supported would it make sense to switch the write
back of both JCR Installer and File Installer to this format to workaround the
limitation of .config files?
> Switch to ConfigurationHandler which supports user-friendly float/double
> values

> Key: SLING-7757
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7757
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Installer
> Affects Versions: Installer Core 3.8.10
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently the {{.config}} format only supports float/double values in the
> IEEE 754 floating-point bit layout (described in
> https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Float.html#intBitsToFloat%28int%29
> and
> https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Double.html#longBitsToDouble(long)
> respectively). With FELIX-5306 this has been fixed for the
> {{ConfigurationHandler}} in package {{org.apache.felix.utils.properties}}
> (https://github.com/apache/felix/blob/trunk/utils/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/utils/properties/ConfigurationHandler.java).
> The OSGi installer still uses the {{ConfigurationHandler}} from
> {{org.apache.felix.cm.file}}
> (https://github.com/apache/felix/blob/trunk/configadmin/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/cm/file/ConfigurationHandler.java),
> which seems to be deprecated and which has not received user-friendly
> float/double support. Therefore the OSGi Installer should be updated to use
> the latest version from Felix Utils
> (https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-installer-core/blob/0a34e33dd26092437be5180e34979abbf9a88300/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/installer/core/impl/InternalResource.java#L257).
