Henry Robinson updated ZOOKEEPER-386:
-------------------------------------
Attachment: ZOOKEEPER-386.patch
Weird, I had the same error with the patch. Not sure what went wrong, sorry
about that. Attached is a version that I've tested on a clean svn pull.
Regarding your other points:
- zkCli.sh - doesn't zkEnv.sh make sure that all jars in $ZOOLIBDIR (which is
bin/../lib on my machine) get added to the classpath? So putting the jline jar
there would be sufficient. What's the best way to make that happen for a
release?
- It would, I think, be possible to load jline only at runtime. Unfortunately
there doesn't seem to be a way to do it that doesn't really overcomplicate
things. I tried catching the NoClassDefFoundError exception when instantiating
the console object; that works great but unfortunately the jvm tries to load
the ZNodeCompletor object at start-up time which means I can't install the
exception handler. If there's a lightweight way to do this that keeps the code
to one source file (I believe it's going too far to substantially restructure
the shell client just for this feature, but let me know if you think
differently), I'll be really happy to do it.

> ------------------------------------------------------------
> Possible improvements:
> Default host list to localhost:2181 when not given.
> Don't print a ton of debug, it looks like both cli_mt and zkCli.sh does this.
> Make a simple ls that lists subnodes one line at a time and a simple cat that
> lists only the node content, simple put etc.
> Shell with gnu readline capabilities and tab completion on node names would
> be a big improvement of usability during testing and debugging.
