i posted this internally the other day ... in hindsight i should've posted it here and then dispatched the associated email pointers.

regardless, here's the skinny. one can configure jxta in roughly 3 (core) lines of code ... and here's how:

import net.jxta.ext.config.AbstractConfigurator;
import net.jxta.ext.config.Configurator;
import net.jxta.exception.ConfiguratorException;
import net.jxta.impl.peergroup.PlatformConfigurator;

public class MyConfigurator
extends AbstractConfigurator {
 public PlatformConfig createPlatformConfig(PlatformConfigurator configurator)
 throws ConfiguratorException {
   ((Configurator)configurator).setName("foo");
   ((Configurator)configurator).setSecurity("bar", "bop");

   return configurator.getPlatformConfig();
 }
}

now, in order to register your newly minted implemenation as the platform configuration delegate a registration one liner is all that is needed to close the loop:

import net.jxta.ext.config.AbstractConfigurator;
...
AbstractConfigurator.register(MyConfigurator.class);
...

jxta configuration is trivial. check it out. you can do way more with ext:config then what is exemplified in this trivial code frag.

MyJXTA :: use it - learn it - do it

Java == platform independence
XML == application independence
JXTA == network independence
