Storagemanager components need to be able to change behavior on the fly to some extent. When the config file changes, the Config instance needs to notify the other components to update the config params that make sense. ex, it makes sense to be able to change the # of threads processing X on the fly, but it doesn't make sense to change the s3 bucket on the fly. This ticket includes changes to Config, and changes to other classes to pick up & adapt to the new values. |

Should note that currently the objectSize configuration cannot be changed once columnstore is started. This needs to be fixed by changing how metadata creates and fills objects with data. |

Sorry, should have been more explicit. This should follow the observer/listener pattern. That is, objects that can be reconfigured implement a listener interface. On construction an instance registers with Config, on destruction it deregisters. When the config file is changed, Config notices and calls the listener interface of each registered object, which reconfigures the object. This way, Config doesn't have to know anything about other classes or instances, and the fcn that reconfigures the object has access to the whole object not just what is available through the public interface. |
