> h2. Current Situation
> Currently key resolution is very complex and leads to many different keys potentially being looked up. Given the following class:
>
> {code:java}
> package a.b.c;
> public class Injected{
> @Config("myProp", "myFallbackProp")
> private String property;
> }
> {code}
>
> Would evaluate to the following key lookup chain:
>
> {code:java}
> a.b.c.Injected.myProp
> a.b.c.Injected.myFallbackProp
> Injected.myProp
> Injected.myFallbackProp
> myProp
> myFallbackProp{code}
>
> h2. Proposal
> This is weird to the user, so the proposal is to
> # Separate the main from the fallback keys
> # Allow to define how to combine the (field)property key, with the class key.
> Therefore the _@Config_ annotation should be adapted as follows:
>
> {code:java}
> public @interface Config {
> String UNCONFIGURED_VALUE = ...;
> String key() default "";
> KeyResolution keyResolution() default KeyResolution.AUTO;
> String[] alternateKeys() default {};
> String defaultValue() default UNCONFIGURED_VALUE;
> boolean required() default true;
> }
> {code}
>
> Herebythe enum type _KeyResolution_ defines how the property key(s) are evaluated:
> * *AUTO*: This is the default key resolution strateg. The targeting key is evaluated as follows:
> ** The containing class _does not_ have a @_ConfigSection_ annotation and the field/method does not have a _@Config_ annotation:
> the main key equals to
> _Owning.class.getSimpleName() + '.' + propertyKey_.
> {{This equals to }}_RELATIVE_SIMPLE_.
> ** The containing class *does not have* a _@ConfigArea_ annotation:
> the main key equals to
> _propertyKey_.
> This equals to _ABSOLUTE_
> ** The containing class *does* have a _@ConfigArea_ annotation:
> the main key equals to
> _sectionAnnotation.getValue() + '.' + propertyKe_y.
> * *RELATIVE_SIMPLE:* The targeting key is evaluated to
> _Owner.class.getSimpleName() + '.' + * propertyKey_
> * *RELATIVE_FQN*: ** The targeting key is evaluated to
> _Owner.class.getName() + '.' + * propertyKey_
> * *ABSOLUTE*: The targeting key is evaluated to _propertyKey._
> Hereby this resolution policy only applies to the main property key, modelled by key()_,_ whereas fallback keys always are considered as _ABSOLUTE_ keys.
> h2. Example
> Given the following class:
> {code:java}
> package a.b.c;
> public class Injected{
> @Config(key="myProp", fallbackKeys={"myFallbackProp"})
> private String property;
> }
> {code}
> Would evaluate to the following key lookup chain:
> {code:java}
> Injected.myProp
> myFallbackProp{code}
> Using _KeyResolution.ABSOLUTE_ the keys would be:
> {code:java}
> myProp
> myFallbackProp{code}
> Using _KeyResolution.RELATIVE_FQN_ the keys would be:
> {code:java}
> a.b.c.Injected.myProp
> myFallbackProp{code}
> This drastically reduces the keyset and makes the resolution more explicit and less magic IMO.
