--------------------------------------------
Summary: Deprecate ImmutabelConfiguration.getArray() infavour of
ImmutabelConfiguration.get().
Key: CONFIGURATION-626
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-626
Project: Commons Configuration
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Joerg Schaible
It is not possible to use the getArray methods in a type-safe way supporting
arrays for primitives and non-primitives. They are completely superfluous on
top of it, since the normal get() methods can simply support the array case in
a type-safe manner:
{format:java}
String[] sArray = config.get(String[].class, "strings");
int[] intArray = config.get(int[].class, "ints");
{format}
Therefore getArray should be deprecated and the implementation for get() should
support the array case directly.
