Over the last few months work has been progressing to improve the
performance of OpenLP at startup. The main culprit has been Settings()
which we believed was a singleton but turned out to be a plain object.
In the main codebase today there are now two new ways to get a settings
object. If your object extends RegistryProperties then all you need to do
is use self.settings.
If your object does not extend RegistryProperties add self.settings =
Registry().get('settings') to your constructor and then access
self.settings.
Clean up work is underway but no new code should be added using the
Settings() method.
In a parallel development, the definition of all settings has been moved to
the central settings.py file. This means we have one place for the
definitions (and no duplicates)!
