xts-environment.url in standalone-xts.xml cannot take an expression

Details

    Description

      AS7 configuration should include expressions like ${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.1} instead of hardcoded hostnames in URLs. The xts-environment.url in standalone-xts.xml is set to 'http://localhost:8080/ws-c11/ActivationService' which makes troubles when AS7 is bound to a different IP than localhost or in IPv6 environment. See the conf file snippet:

              <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:xts:1.0">
            <xts-environment url="http://localhost:8080/ws-c11/ActivationService"/>
        </subsystem>

      But when I tried to change the URL to 'http://${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.1}:8080/ws-c11/ActivationService', the XTS tests in AS7 testsuite failed with:

      13:59:11,669 ERROR [org.jboss.arquillian.protocol.jmx.JMXTestRunner] (pool-4-thread-1) Failed: org.jboss.as.test.xts.simple.wsat.client.WSATTestCase.testRollback: com.arjuna.wst.SystemException: javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Could not send Message.

      The cause of this failure was that the expression from the url was not resolved.
      Paul, please could you take a look at it and fix the XTS configuration to be able to resolve expressions?

      I tried to change line 149 in org.jboss.as.xts.XTSSubsystemAdd class to:

      final String coordinatorURL = model.get(CommonAttributes.XTS_ENVIRONMENT).hasDefined(ModelDescriptionConstants.URL) ? context.resolveExpressions(model.get(CommonAttributes.XTS_ENVIRONMENT, ModelDescriptionConstants.URL)).asString() : null;

      but it did not help, the model.get(CommonAttributes.XTS_ENVIRONMENT, ModelDescriptionConstants.URL) node seems to be String type instead of expression type.

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. AS7-4002 Some of subsytem configurations statically refer to localhost

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
