---------------------------------
Summary: Use of type-converters in Karaf Security Documentation is
incorrect
Key: KARAF-2958
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-2958
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: Documentation
Components: karaf-documentation
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Paul Adams
Priority: Minor
The documentation at:
http://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest/developers-guide/security-framework.html
contains an example of using blueprint to configure a JAAS realm and uses the
$[karaf.base] property to specify the path to the properties file defining
users and roles. To ensure consistent paths across platforms a
PropertiesConverter is used however the example itself is broken because it
violates the XML XSD for http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/blueprint/v1.0.0.
The example XML will not deploy complaining of an XML schema violation because
of the order of elements.
The XML contains:
<ext:property-placeholder placeholder-prefix="$[" placeholder-suffix="]"/>
<type-converters>
<bean
class="org.apache.karaf.jaas.modules.properties.PropertiesConverter"/>
</type-converters>
But the type-converters element (per the XSD) must follow the optional
description element and precede any others within the root blueprint element.
Re-ordering the XML like:
<type-converters>
<bean
class="org.apache.karaf.jaas.modules.properties.PropertiesConverter"/>
</type-converters>
<ext:property-placeholder placeholder-prefix="$[" placeholder-suffix="]"/>
to properly place the ext:property-placeholder element AFTER the
type-converters element resolves the problem and allows it to deploy properly.
