Hello, I am working on a special Configuration implementation called HierarchicalConfiguration that avoids the problems I have outlined in my last posting (messing up structure of hierarchical XML documents). Therefor I use my own scheme of storing data.
My class extends AbstractConfiguration. Implementing the abstract methods I found that this base class already makes certain assumptions about how data is stored, which makes implementation of some methods difficult. Especially addProperty() is problematic because it simply adds new properties to a Container object and wants to store this directly. This won't work with my implementation. In my opinion a better behavior for addProperty() would be to process collections and strings (as it does now) and then pass the results to addPropertyDirect(). The Container stuff could then be located in the addPropertyDirect() implementation of BaseConfiguration. What do you think about this?
