I'm looking to use the configuration package and wanted to wrap it in my own Singleton e.g.
MyConfiguration.getInstance().getProperty(key). The ConfigurationFactory, referencing various Properties files, would get setup in the constructor of MyConfiguration.
If I do not intend to add properties at run time, is it ok to use MyConfiguration in a mutli-threaded environment, i.e. once the ConfigurationFactory has been loaded up, is it safe for multiple threads to retrieve properties at the same time.
I'd really appreciate some advice if the Singleton pattern is not the recommend approach. I'm trying to centralise where the Configuration is setup and also trying to ensure that the Properties files would only get read in once, rather than each call to retrieve a property.
Thanks in advance Charles
