I'm using successfully the equinox implementation of the OSGI
HttpService. Now I'd like to change the http timeout to a larger value
than the default of 30 seconds. As I am already using aQute fileinstall
(www.aqute.biz/Code/FileInstall), I tried to change the timeout with a
configuration file of the name
"org.eclipse.equinox.http.HttpFactory-default.cfg" - the content looks
like this:
http.timeout = 600
As the timeout did not change I started debugging the updated(String,
Dictionary)-method of the class HttpConfiguration (which is actually
being called) and realized the problem: the given timeoutProperty must
be of type int - but it is of type String and therefore a
ConfigurationException is thrown. The fileinstall documentation states
"Notice that this model only supports String properties"...
So my question is how to get this working? Would it be a good idea to
check within the HttpConfiguration's updated-method if the
timeoutProperty is of type String and try to parse/convert it to an
Integer? Is there a different approach?
My current workaround is to look through the ManagedServices for the
HttpConfiguration and call its updated-method with a
Dictionary-parameter containing a timeoutProperty of type int. It works
but causes compile-warnings (Discouraged access).
