+ <p>
+ Configuration is a project to provide a generic Configuration
+ interface and allow the source of the
+ values to vary. It
+ provides easy typed access to single, as well as lists of
+ configuration values based on a 'key':
+<source><![CDATA[
+ Double double = Configuration.getDouble("some_double_value");
+]]></source>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Right now you can load properties from a simple properties file,
+ a properties file in a jar, an XML file, JNDI settings, as well as use
+ a mix different sources using a ConfigurationFactory and
CompositeConfiguration.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Custom configuration objects are very easy to create now by just
subclassing
+ AbstractConfiguration. This works similar to how AbstractList works.

This code originated in JServ, was brought into Turbine,
moved to Velocity and improved, and then moved into the
Commons as ExtendedProperties. The code in
- ExtendedProperties is a little unweildly and deals
- specifically with properties files. We wanted to use a
- general Configuration interface and allow the source of the
- values to vary. Right now you can load properties from a simple
- properties file, an XML file, JNDI settings, as well as use
- a mix different sources using a ConfigurationFactory.
+ ExtendedProperties is a little unwieldly and deals
+ specifically with properties files. Eventually it was added to
+ the Commons sandbox project.
