How-to: Create the core component with default settings using Spring
Import the spring configuration for the core component into the application context for a project where the core component should be used:
<beans xmlns="...">
<!-- Configures core component -->
<import resource="classpath:com.alpha.pineapple.core-config.xml" />
</beans>
Add a core component bean in the context where the core component Spring configuration is imported into. Use the com.alpha.pineapple.CoreFactory as factory method to create the core component instance:
<beans xmlns="...">
<!-- Configures core component -->
<import resource="classpath:com.alpha.pineapple.core-config.xml" />
<!-- define credentials provider -->
<bean id="credentialsProvider" factory-bean="coreFactory" factory-method="createCredentialProvider">
<constructor-arg>
<bean id="credentialsXml" class="java.io.File">
<constructor-arg type="java.lang.String" value="$\{user.home}/.pineapple/conf/credentials.xml"/>
</bean>
</constructor-arg>
</bean>
<!-- define pineapple core component -->
<bean id="pineappleCore" factory-bean="coreFactory" factory-method="createCore">
<constructor-arg index="0" ref="credentialsProvider" />
<constructor-arg index="1" >
<bean id="resourcesXml" class="java.io.File">
<constructor-arg type="java.lang.String" value="/resources.xml"/>
</bean>
</constructor-arg>
</bean>
</beans>
How the core component will the load environment configuration
The location where the environment configuration is loaded from is determined by resolution of the runtime directories used by the core component.
