I looked in the online-doku, but didn't find the info that fitts to my problem. how do i get a configuration out of multiple files, configured in only one file?i'd like to have a config.xml where all other needed configuration files are listes in: <configuration> <system/> <properties fileName="application.properties"/> <xmlfile fileName="component1.xml"/> <xmlfile fileName="component2.xml"/> </configuration> when reading the above xml-file with creating a new ConfigurationFactory("config.xml") and then calling the .getConfoguration method, i only get a configuration object, but not a XMLConfiguration-Object. did i understand things wrong and loading of property files via configurationFactory has no equivalent handling for xml-files? thanx in advance, thomas
The Configuration returned by the ConfigurationFactory is an instance of CompositeConfiguration, which is a kind of container for other Configuration objects. You can cast the returned object to this type and then use methods like getConfiguration(int) to access the contained configurations. These will be of the correct classes, like PropertiesConfiguration or XMLConfiguration.
Note that the correct tag for loading XML configurations is <xml fileName="..."/> and not <xmlfile>!
