Nah! We went this road in torque with the id generators and along lies madness! Please don't try to "sweeten" the locator names by introducing human readable names into the XML syntax.
What's wrong with that ? From a user point of view it's easier to have short names than fully qualified class names. Hibernate uses this approach in its mapping file, I find this quite nice. Of course it's still possible to use the class name instead.
I'd very much prefer
<properties locatorClass="org.apache.commons.configuration.locator.ClassPathLocator"> <param name="fileName" value="config.properties" /> </properties>
over that. Using attributes locks us into a defined set of fields by the DTD.
Err... but we don't have any DTD for the configuration descriptor ;)
