Re: [equinox-dev] About CM
|
Jerry,
You're right in one regard: a single Configuration object in the CM store
can only be bound by one ManagedService instance. However, Config Admin is
not an administration interface. It describes the internal workings of
configuration in OSGi, along with a programmatic API for accessing and
modifying the configuration, but it does not deal with external aspects at
all and it does not offer any UI.
I think it is unlikely that the Configuration objects in the CM store will
have a direct mapping to the conceptual properties that an administrator
would configure. Nobody really knows what the administration interface for
an "enterprise" OSGi application will look like at this point, and I guess
that one of the things the EEG plan to do is to come up with some guidance
in this area.
In my opinion, most adminstrators would prefer the familiarity of good old
.properties files (or perhaps XML or JSON formats), and so I think
management agents will appear that support a mapping from external config
files onto the Configuration store (and back). Also JMX has some momentum,
since there is a lot of tool support for it, and there are some management
agents already available that offer a mapping from JMX to Config Admin (eg
JMood). There is no reason why these mappings would need to be one-to-one.
In summary: I think that Config Admin IS suitable for enterprise apps, but
it's not the whole solution.

Neil
