--------------------------------------------

             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.
