perfsonar development work

["Michael Bischoff" <>]

Hello all,

I have a question regarding the LSRegistrationComponent in
org.perfsonar.service.base.registration vs 
org.perfsonar.service.measurementArchive.register

Is there any reason why those two very similar (one supports 
ServiceContent(file/xmldb)
default values are slightly different) exists in the way that they do now?

Perhaps one should inherit from the other or should both inherit a new 
abstract class, fixes
now have to be done in two places. I also believe that difference isn't 
documented atm. Also
are MA only using ServiceContent's?

The reason that I'm working on it is because the current support for 
ServiceContent's doesn't
fit our needs as a xmldb is overkill and file approach is impractical so I 
was coding
additional support for a new ServiceContent that takes it's information from 
the servlet
context.

I've also done some maintenance on the base, changes that should effect
Unused variables. Type-safety warnings. Unused imports. etc. the usual.

It makes no sense to check it in at this point because it would likely 
frustrate the 3.0
release, I'll make a branch and merge it after the release.

Kind regards,

Michael Bischoff
