Jiri Danek created ARTEMIS-608: ---------------------------------- Summary: Document how to add user-provided classes to Broker class path Key: ARTEMIS-608 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-608 Project: ActiveMQ Artemis Issue Type: Task Components: Broker Affects Versions: 1.3.0 Reporter: Jiri Danek
Broker reads the {{lib}} directory in the broker home directory and a {{lib}} directory **in the broker instance directory** and jar files in the lib directory are put on the class path. To provide my own Interceptor or something, it should be built into a jar and (together with all depending jars) dropped into the instance's lib directory, so it can be found by the broker. This deserves to be written up in the documentation. I believe that the only place this is described (the part about the instance's lib at least) is http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/Adding-custom-decoder-into-Artemis-classpath-td4707493.html. Appropriate place for this explanation might be be {{docs/user-manual/en/using-server.md}} There are few references to it, I managed to find {{docs/user-manual/en/intercepting-operations.md}} and {{docs/user-manual/en/persistence.md}} which say {quote}The interceptors classes (and their dependencies) must be added to the server classpath to be properly instantiated and called.{quote} {quote}Add the appropriate JDBC driver libraries to the Artemis runtime. You can do this by dropping the relevant jars in the lib folder of the ActiveMQ Artemis distribution.{quote} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
