Hi,
I did not find the time yet to test 1.3-dev, but I have a question. If
have a configuration.xml such as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<configuration>
<properties fileName="foo.properties"/>
<properties fileName="bar.properties"/>
<properties fileName="acme.properties"/>
<xml fileName="cow.xml"/>
<xml fileName="chicken.xml"/>
</configuration>
then I find these lines in my code:
public static CompositeConfiguration config;
....
// WARNING - acme.properties must be 3rd entry in configuration.xml
Configuration propertyConfiguration = config.getConfiguration(2);
Will there be a way to get propertyConfiguration (or xmlConfiguration or
even (!) databaseConfiguration) out of configuartion.xml _by some id_
and _not by index_? I don't want my application stop working just
becouse someone changed the order of elements in configuration.xml.
Regards,
Borut

Oliver, that is great news! I'll check out the latest version to play
with. What is the release plan?
It would be great if somebody could test these new features. So far we
have not got any feedback.
A new release has not been discussed yet. Don't know about the other
committers, but I have some things on my list I would like to finish
before a new version. This is especially the re-design of the
ConfigurationFactory class. I started with an alternative implementation
(called DefaultConfigurationBuilder), which is quite functional ATM, but
some things are missing.

Since the 1.2 release development has continued. The current version
in SVN now supports so called "expression engines", which allow to
plug in different query languages. There is also an XPATH expression
engine, which can be used for querying properties in XPATH syntax.
With this you can write something like that:
String firstUsrField = config.getString(
"/database/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'users']/fields/field[1]/name");
or use other features provided by XPATH to navigate through your
configuration. The user guide (in the SVN version) was updated to
cover these new facilities.
