OK, I see what you are after now :-) The fileinstall config handler doesn't
currently support multivalue properties, so whatever you set on a property
value gets parsed as a single string (the code simply uses load(inputstream)
from the Properties class). This functionality could probably be added, but
we would have to decide on a way to differentiate between scalar values and
arrays ("this, is, one, string" vs. String[] property =
{"this","is","one","string"} ). Another option would be to support syntax
similar to the scr javadoc annotations and munge the properties into an
array (value.1="this", value.2="is", etc become String[] property =
{"this","is", etc} ). If you are interested in that feature, please create
a Jira and someone will take a look.
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX
Until then, you could either add your own config admin code to do something
like this, or you can add a method with a single string argument to accept
the property and then parse and process into your component after it is set
by scr from the config admin.
Thanks,
Chris
