Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-535:
--------------------------------------------
It is not yet clear whether these issues are actually implemented in version 2.
If there is no activity and no conrete proposals, they are probably postponed
to a later 2.x release. So every idea and all suggestions are helpful!
> Add getters for the initial parameters of DatabaseConfiguration

> Key: CONFIGURATION-535
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-535
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Yanlin Ye
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: features
>
> We use database configuration to support a centralized location for
> configuration properties common to some distributed components of our
> application, and it works great. In order for our application components to
> report issues (especially when we have database connection issues), we
> extended database configuration to maintain a backup cache for all properties
> and update the cache whenever a property is accessed. This way, the cached
> properties can be used if the properties cannot be loaded from the database.
> The extension works as expected and can report issues even if the database
> connection becomes not available.
> The only (minor) thing is that, when we extended DatabaseConfiguration, we
> had to maintain another copy of the initial parameters such as table name,
> name/key/value columns, etc, because DatabaseConfiguration does not provide
> access to them. I was wondering whether or not the following can be added to
> DatabaseConfiguration to make it easier to be extended.
> - Add getters for initialization parameters, and
> - Change private void close(Connection, Statement) to protected for reuse.
> Please ignore if you don't think the suggested changes can be useful to users.
