Agree. Personally, I'm not a big fan of system properties. They have their place of course, and are good for workarounds where the API can't be changed, or you can't or don't want to change your application. In hindsight I think I should have initially added an API to control this behavior on a per signature basis. I think adding a static method to toggle this behavior could cause more harm than good. > I guess ideally there should be no static variable which controls this for all > applications, and it should be done by non-static methods on each of the > classes. So what I'll do is leave this open to add a method on a per Signature basis, as that seems easy enough to add for the next release. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
