Guys, Have you looked at Apache Commons Config 2 lately? https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-configuration/apidocs/org/apache/commons/configuration2/builder/combined/CombinedConfigurationBuilder.html (actually that's been around since 1.3) shows a lot of similarities with the ideas for "configuration metadata" or chaining and ordering configuration sources.
It still seems a little less targeting true distributed configuration and configuration sources. Configuration there is always mutable btw. (unless you stick to the ImmutableConfiguration base interface, that's very similar to what JCache did with its config subsystem) Cheers, Werner On Tue, Jan 3, 2017 at 5:37 PM, Werner Keil <[email protected]> wrote: > cfg4j uses a slightly different approach called "fallback" so you create a > FallbackConfigurationSource (sounds familiar, probably where the name was > derived from, at least neither DeltaSpike nor Tamaya know a term > ConfigSource or ConfigurationSource;-) with n fallbacks.
