Raimund Klein updated CONFIGURATION-472:
----------------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
Description:
XMLConfiguration's configuration(s)At return regular SubnodeConfigurations
which can't "really" be used for adding nodes as these won't be converted into
XMLConfiguration's internal XMLNodes. More precisely, when using the
SubnodeConfiguration for adding, accesses to the main XMLConfiguration can run
into ClassCastExceptions later on.
Workaround: Adding the created nodes directly to the main XMLConfiguration
(e.g. with the appropriate XPath), as this configuration's add methods convert
these into the internal form.
Proposed Solution: Let XMLConfiguration's configuration(s)At methods return a
subclass of SubnodeConfiguration, whose add methods will perform the same node
conversion. Consequently, this new class' SubnodeConfigurations returned by
configuration(s)At should be instances of the very same class.
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
Summary: SubnodeConfigurations returned by XMLConfiguration should
convert added nodes to XML nodes. (was: XMLConfiguration)
> SubnodeConfigurations returned by XMLConfiguration should convert added nodes
> to XML nodes.
