A bootstap deliverable jar file is provided as part of the Avalon
Repository distribution. This deliverable includes the API, SPI
and a micro-bootstrap repository that is used to load different
repository implementations. The bootstrap system provides added
features dealing with application deployment, including classloader
chain establishment and application instantiation.
A bootstrap profile is established relative to the following
environment variables and properties:
|
