A hill of beans

Hi Developers,

    We have a new API checked in that you should be aware of. This fixes the log reports and helps prepare the way to use a database.

    If you look in /archive/configuration/beans.xml you will find this lookup table:

<beans>
<bean  id="productArchive" bean="assetXmlProductArchive" />
<bean  id="catalogImportConverter" bean="assetCompositeConverter" />
<bean  id="searchSearcher" bean="logSearcher" />
<bean  id="downloadSearcher" bean="logSearcher" />
</beans>

This means that for this archive we want to use the assetXmlProductArchive bean instead of the standard productArchive.

The benefits is that now OpenEdit can mix and match beans. For example: we can now support using Cumulus on one catalog but not using it on the others.

If you upgrade a site make sure you have the correct beans.xml for that customers needs.

So I can swap out something like the BlogNotification bean for JUST voisin while leaving it intact for other blogs?  That's FANTASTIC!

This really brings an entire new level of pluggability to OpenEdit - I'm pretty sure we were part of the impetus to do this, but still  - well done.

Yes that is right. The only trick is that the Blog or BlogModule will need to load up BlogNotification by calling ModuleManager.getBean(inCatalogId, inBeanName)

If you look at the Store object you will see the lazy loading in the getProductArchive() method.

Another benefit is that we are able to eliminate the duplicate store bean definitions from archive and cumulus plugin.xml files.
