Hi Marcel, Thank you very much for your prompt and quick response.For sure, I’ll search and read more about the ArtifactHelper and ArtifactRecognizer and implement them to be able to add our configuration files to ACE. For the broken link I was reading the user guide from this link : http://ace.apache.org/user-doc/user-guide.html, and in the section Uploading artifacts, there is a link for adding support for new types of artifacts which is not working.
Thank you very much and my best Regards, Ghania ________________________________ De : Marcel Offermans <[email protected]> À : [email protected]; ghania ferrag <[email protected]> Envoyé le : jeudi 17 octobre 2013 15h24 Objet : Re: Uploading a configuration file Hello Ghania, On Oct 17, 2013, at 21:14 PM, ghania ferrag <[email protected]> wrote: > When I tried to add configuration files (which are PDF and XML files) an > error is displayed : noting that particular artifact is not uploaded. > In the Apache Ace user guide it said that an artifact is anything from an > OSGi bundle to a configuration file. > How we can upload a configuration file using ACE server UI? Out of the box, ACE supports bundles and XML configuration files that follow the Auto Configuration specification (chapter 115 in the OSGi compendium). If you want to add support for other file types, you need to implement an ArtifactHelper and ArtifactRecognizer and add those to ACE. Furthermore, you need to create a resource processor bundle, add it as an artifact to ACE and then you can add your new files. I really need to find some time to document that more elaborately and come up with an example. For now, the best examples are in the ACE sourcecode. > Also in the Ace user guide, the following link > http://ace.apache.org/dev-doc/adding-artifact-recognizers.html( adding > support for new types of artifacts in ACE ) seems to be broken. On what page exactly did you find that link? I could not find it. You can raise an issue for that so we won't forget to fix it. Greetings, Marcel
