Petar Tahchiev updated CONFIGURATION-565:
-----------------------------------------

    Description: 
Hi guys,

it would be really awesome if the {{Configuration}} could be created with a 
passphrase (another constructor which accepts a string, let's say 
'mypassphrase') and then you also add a method in the interface (let's say 
getEncodedString('database.password')) so we could have encoded properties in 
our properties files. Internally the method just needs to delegate to jasypt's  
{{StandardPBEStringEncryptor}} for instance
{code}
 StandardPBEStringEncryptor encryptor = new StandardPBEStringEncryptor();
            encryptor.setPassword("mypassphrase");
encryptor.decrypt("database.password");
{code}
decrypt the value and then return the decrypted value. This will allow for more 
secure property files.
