ReloadableConfigurationAttributes

id

string

Identifies the component for logging purposes.

url

 URL

Remote location of an XML resource containing the required configuration. The SP does not verify the transport (i.e. it does not verify the X.509 certificate presented by the remote server when HTTPS is the transport).

path

local path

Path to a local file containing the required configuration

validate

boolean

false

If true, XML validation is performed when loading the resource

reloadChanges

boolean

true

If a path attribute is used, the local file is monitored for changes and reloaded dynamically. This incurs some runtime overhead for locking, so should be disabled if not needed.

maxRefreshDelay

time in seconds

0

If a url attribute is used, this attribute sets the time between attempts to download a fresh copy of the resource. If 0 (the default), no reloading occurs. This incurs some runtime overhead for locking, so should be left at 0 if not needed

reloadInterval

Synonym for maxRefreshDelay

backingFilePath

local path

If a url attribute is used, the downloaded resource is copied to this location. If the software is started and the remote resource is unavailable or invalid, the backing file is loaded instead

certificate

local path

Path to a certificate containing a public key to use to require and verify an XML signature over the resource. The certificate's other content is ignored.

signerName

string

If present, the name is supplied to the <TrustEngine> used to verify an XML signature over the resource. A certificate containing the name must be available in the verification process (typically inside the signature).
