The imap.server.mountPoints property is used as an example for setting composite properties.

The ImapConfigMountPointsBean class that holds the component beans has four properties of its own:

  • beanName
  • store
  • rootPath
  • mode
  1. Open the <classpathRoot>/alfresco-global.properties file.
  2. To set some overall defaults for all component instances, use the format: 
     <property>.default.<component property>

    These values would show up, for example, when you added a new component instance but didn’t specify its properties.

    For example:

     imap.server.mountPoints.default.store=${spaces.store}
 imap.server.mountPoints.default.rootPath=/${spaces.company_home.childname}
 imap.server.mountPoints.default.mode=virtual

    This example doesn’t define a default for beanName because there’s a way of populating it for each instance.

  3. To set up the imap.server.mountPoints with a composite value, set the master composite property using a comma-separated list.For example: 
     imap.server.mountPoints=Repository_virtual,Repository_archive

    This defines that the property contains two ImapConfigMountPointsBean instances, named Repository_virtual and Repository_archive. Because ImapConfigMountPointsBean implements the BeanNameAware Spring interface and has a beanName property, these instance names are automatically set as the bean names.

  4. To define component properties specific to each component instance, use the format: 
     <property>.value.<component instance name>.<component property>

    For example:

     imap.server.mountPoints.value.Repository_virtual.mode=virtual
 imap.server.mountPoints.value.Repository_archive.mode=archive
