@Anthony, it seems the classification complexity is imposed by our *implementation* when the file is processed, extract the "base name" and "version" and then append "our" (Geode) version (v1,v2) on each file of the same name, to track some form of version. This happens for all file "formats"... Which is why I suggest that we stick to accepting 1 format, which is "almost" industry standard and accepted, rather than just supporting any format that the customer chooses to use.
That is why I'm suggesting “<artifact name>[ - <major> . <minor> . <patch> [ - <Release Tag> ] ] .jar” Given this announcement from Git 2014, they are adopting a similar approach.. More Semver-like in its approach. Java 9 Modularity also has a similar approach to but according to them, they only deal with <major>.<minor>.<patch>. Maybe this is a completely moot point, as JBoss modules determines uniqueness by including version number in the "artifact name". Thus forcing the user to first undeploy the previous jar before deploying the new version of it. But having some form of consistency is good... Especially considering the our testing is already broken in this following case: assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("spark-network-common_2.11-2.3.1.jar")).isEqualTo("spark-network-common_2"); --Udo On 10/8/20, 9:45 AM, "Anthony Baker" <bak...@vmware.com> wrote: Given the wide variety of filenames possible do we even need a classification scheme?

Most probably drive by user's existing filenames. I believe we are probably concerned that user's jar name might contain "_" or "-" themselves, like common-logging.jar etc. So we had to resort to finding the first "." followed by a digit to determine where the version pattern begins. > > On 10/7/20, 1:44 PM, "Udo Kohlmeyer" <u...@vmware.com> wrote: > > Hi there Geode Dev List, > > Whilst doing work on GEODE-8466<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fissues.apache.org%2Fjira%2Fbrowse%2FGEODE-8466&data=02%7C01%7Cudo%40vmware.com%7C5ce7e9c6e33a47c302c808d86b12af97%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C0%7C637377075284402146&sdata=Rd0xwyMA89YBBAxWhYyb7qwqCub0rgSPlRnIJcvUpNI%3D&reserved=0> and looking at the functionality that the ClassPathLoader.java<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Fblob%2Fdevelop%2Fgeode-core%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Finternal%2FClassPathLoader.java&data=02%7C01%7Cudo%40vmware.com%7C5ce7e9c6e33a47c302c808d86b12af97%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C0%7C637377075284402146&sdata=3OPOy7kS9N1xn1T2EofJNXZiz4%2FXO0MEUSBLYgXmzMs%3D&reserved=0>, JarDeployer.java<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Fblob%2Fdevelop%2Fgeode-core%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Finternal%2FJarDeployer.java&data=02%7C01%7Cudo%40vmware.com%7C5ce7e9c6e33a47c302c808d86b12af97%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C0%7C637377075284412146&sdata=X%2BJg7JZFzZDCZLR3MR%2Fx9CkbfezWTOSb5IVbtTpTfkw%3D&reserved=0> and DeployedJar.java<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Fblob%2Fdevelop%2Fgeode-core%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Finternal%2FDeployedJar.java&data=02%7C01%7Cudo%40vmware.com%7C5ce7e9c6e33a47c302c808d86b12af97%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C0%7C637377075284412146&sdata=6tbMVL6NKQAlleg9B%2BQA%2FdRHdirCKBF1smGC7On2KJ8%3D&reserved=0> provide around the “Deploy Jar” functionality, we came across some interesting “supported” filename patterns. > > According to the JarDeployerFileTest.java<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Fblob%2Fdevelop%2Fgeode-core%2Fsrc%2FintegrationTest%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fapache%2Fgeode%2Finternal%2FJarDeployerFileTest.java&data=02%7C01%7Cudo%40vmware.com%7C5ce7e9c6e33a47c302c808d86b12af97%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C0%7C637377075284412146&sdata=zFHj8EXRrtCH2nS11NsPrZ83CJQBZ%2BLZwPyCw2rG%2By4%3D&reserved=0> the “supported” formats are as follows: > > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("abc.jar")).isEqualTo("abc"); > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("abc-1.jar")).isEqualTo("abc"); > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("ab.c.1.jar")).isEqualTo("ab.c"); > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("abc.v1.jar")).isEqualTo("abc.v1"); > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("abc-1.0.snapshot.jar")).isEqualTo("abc"); > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("abc-1.0.v1.jar")).isEqualTo("abc"); > assertThat(JarDeployer.getArtifactId("spark-network-common_2.11-2.3.1.jar")) > .isEqualTo("spark-network-common_2"); > Which don’t make any sense.
