Jeremy, On having the system.scdl in the etc directory ..
I am assuming it is the system.scdl for the server itself, rather than the runtime that is lauched by the server? Each runtime that is launched through the startRuntime managed operation on the server will have its own system.scdl, wherever it is stored as long it is available to the boot classloader of the runtime? Would this mean the distro would be something like /install -> Root installer directory /install/launcher -> Launcher root /install/launcher/etc -> Launcher runtime properties and system scdl /install/launcher/boot -> Launcher boot libraries /install/server -> Server root /install/server/etc -> Server runtime properties and system scdl /install/server/boot -> Server boot libraries /install/server/runtime-x -> Runtime x root /install/server/runtime-x/etc -> Runtime x runtime.properties and system scdl /install/server/runtime-x/etc/boot -> Runtime x boot libraries /install/server/runtime-y -> Runtime y root /install/server/runtime-y/etc -> Runtime y runtime.properties and system scdl /install/server/runtime-y/etc/boot -> Runtime y boot libraries Ta Meeraj -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Boynes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 3:13 PM To: tuscany-dev@ws.apache.org Subject: Server profiles One problem we had with M2 was that the launcher used a single set of extensions for every application it ran. I think Meeraj's server config will have a similar issue with it's ability to run multiple runtimes at the same time (with the likelihood that the reason someone wants to do that would be that they are configured differently). To address this, I am going to convert the standalone distro to support the notion of runtime profiles by adding a "profiles" directory in the root containing a subdirectory for each profile. There will be two built-in profiles "launcher" and "server" present by default and used by the launcher and server commands. Each profile will contain an "etc" directory which would contain the "runtime.properties" and "system.scdl" files used by that profile's runtime. As a side benefit moving the system.scdl out of the launcher jar will make it easier for users to change it if they want. I'll also add support for a new command line option ( -Dprofile=... ) to allow the user to override the default profile for each command. -- Jeremy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This message has been checked for all email viruses by MessageLabs. ***************************************************** You can find us at www.voca.com ***************************************************** This communication is confidential and intended for the exclusive use of the addressee only.
