Hi Jon
I just look at the source for TurbineConfig and there's three things that I
want to know. First, your example have a line tc.init(). As it's already
in the constructor for TurbineConfig, why would we call it explicitely?
My second question is about the fact that you said that we can use
TurbineResources outside of Turbine. It's seems true but what is the cost
of doing so? I saw in the init that a Turbine object is created and
initialize. Are the two services mentionned (ResourceService and
LoggingService) the only ones that will run? Can I set a property so that
the Logging don't run at all?
The last thing is still about TurbineConfig. The first parameter is the
base directory from where the properties file can be found. Is there any
default that I missed (like looking in the classpath)? If not, as an
application can be installed about anywhere on a filesystem and we certainly
don't want to put a path in the code, how do you suggest that we configure
this base path? Via the servlet config?
Thanks.
Etienne
