http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29617 [configuration] Add getXXXArray() methods for all types ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-06-16 21:43 ------- I agree all of this will expand the Configuration interface significantly, but is this fundamentally wrong ? - it doesn't put a burden on the developpers, since these methods will be implemented only once in AbstractConfiguration and inherited everywhere else - it doesn't put a burden on the users since method names all follow the same simple pattern: get<Type>(String key) get<Type>(String key, <Type> defaultValue) get<Type>Array(String key) get<Type>s(String key) It's quite easy to remember, there is no need to dive into a huge javadoc page to find the appropriate method name. Configuration is already a convience interface comparing to Properties, that seems a bit odd to provide a second level interface imho. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
