4.27. Declaring Definition Language
These are the ways you can declare which definition language you want to use:
- Each definition language can have an alias. For instance MVEL has the alias mvel. To define that you want to use MVEL for a specific factory definition you put mvel: in front of the definition. For example. mvel:some.package.ListFactory.getInstance().newList(). The alias of the default basic language is basic.
- To set a language as a global default you need to set the ‘factory.definition.parser.class’ global parameter to the full class path of the class that implements the FactoryDefinitionParser interface for the language that you want to use. If you have a definition with your default language that includes a
:
you should prefix that definition withdefault:
to avoid an exception. - You can set the full classpath of the class that implements the FactoryDefinitionParser interface for the language that you want to use. (For example, org.milyn.javabean.factory.MVELFactoryDefinitionParser:some.package.ListFactory.getInstance().newList().) You should generally use this for test purposes only. It is much better to define an alias for your language.
