I am fairly new to the Xindice source code, so forgive me if I have missed
the point.
It seems to me that Xindice started out as a standalone server only
implementation, where using a dedicated configuration file makes a lot of
sense, and has now recently moved on to also function in the embedded mode.
As an embedded db, it seems odd that you need a dedicated configuration
file.
I noticed the Configurable interface/class, but I haven't seen it being used
to configure the db.home
when using org.apache.xindice.client.xmldb.DatabaseImpl and the embed:
pseudo-protocol, the configuration is delayed, so
properties set on the Database object could be applied to a Configuration
object and then fed to the chosen driver.
Wouldn't this make sense ?
If this is a to-do item, then I volunteer to do it.
