Greetings, I had some questions about SMF manifests that I was hoping someone could answer. I've spent read through the available documentation that I could find, but I still could not find anything that explains these items:
1. What are the differences between the different propval types (e.g. count, integer, etc.)? Is there a document somewhere that explicitly defines what each of these data types expects for a value (format, limits, etc.)? 2. Is it possible to create property groups of property groups (the dtd suggests that this is not possible)? 3. Is it possible to conditionally specify options to a program in its start method based on a property value? In other words, if I have: <propval name='error_log' type='astring' value='stderr' /> ...can my start method conditionally include a --log-errors command-line option to my program based on the value of the propval? 4. I have a need for users to be able to specify values to the program based on locale. This is not the locale that the program is running in, but the locale of the content being generated by the program. For example, I have a property group called "repository" and a propval called "name". What is the best way for them to be able to specify a value for "name" for each locale (e.g. en, fr, etc.)? Thanks, -- Shawn Walker
