#234 Create common option description mechanism
Closed: wontfix 3 years ago by pbrezina. Opened 14 years ago by sgallagh.

We should specify all options for providers and services in a common (XML?) format and process this file to create the SSSDConfig API configuration files as well as the option definitions in the C code and the manpages.

This will keep us from needing to maintain three different sources of information.

This ticket has not been addressed. This was created after the commit specified in the FixedIn. The goal was to have a common description file that can be used to generate the option lists for the manpages, SSSDConfig API and the providers themselves.

Right now, it is necessary to manually update all three places whenever an option is changed, added or removed.
