Howdy Folks,

I'm trying to use the inbuilt ConfigurationFactory but
there's a couple of things which i've noted....

1. Is there a way to specify a property file to use
and configuration will ignore the fact that it doesn't
exist? (ie. optional properties could reside in a file
that is optionally included). Right now, it throws
exceptions if the file is missing.

No, it's a known limitation of [configuration], there is a bug covering this issue :


http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31797

2. If the answer to 2 is no... then is there a way I
can extend this easily? I've had a look at the
ConfigurationFactory class but it looks pretty
involved.

There is no easy way to do it right now. A possible solution is to hack AbstractFileConfiguration.load(String fileName) and fail silently if the file is not found.
