BaseService provides a default implementation of the Service interface including the getConfiguration() method. The returned Configuration should contain service specific properties obtained via ServiceBroker from ResourceService. The returned Configuration is generally a new instance, which can be modified without side effects to other objects. TurbineResourceService implements also the getConfiguration() method, which returns a direct reference to its internal Configuration object maintaining properties of all other services. This is a useful implementation especially for subclasses extending ResourceService, but should it have a different name, like getResourceConfiguration(), that wouldn't hide the default implementation, which would return only the properties of ResourceService itself as specified in the Service interface? -- Ilkka --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
