Class ShadingPathResolver

java.lang.Object
  org.java.plugin.standard.StandardPathResolver
      org.java.plugin.standard.ShadingPathResolver

All Implemented Interfaces:

PathResolver

public class ShadingPathResolver
extends StandardPathResolver

This implementation of path resolver makes "shadow copy" of plug-in resources before resolving paths to them, this helps avoid locking of local resources and run native code from remote locations.

Configuration parameters

This path resolver implementation supports following configuration parameters:

shadowFolder

Path to the folder where to copy resources to prevent their locking. By default this will be System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir") + "/.jpf-shadow". Please note that this folder will be maintained automatically by the Framework and might be cleared without any confirmation or notification. So it is strongly not recommended to use plug-ins folder (or other sensitive application directory) as shadow folder, this may lead to losing your data.

unpackMode

If always, "JAR'ed" or "ZIP'ed" plug-ins will be un-compressed to the shadow folder, if never, they will be just copied, if smart, the processing depends on plug-in content - if plug-in contains JAR libraries, it will be un-packed, otherwise just copied to shadow folder. It is also possible to add boolean "unpack" attribute to plug-in manifest, in this case, it's value will be taken into account. The default parameter value is smart.
