Re: svn commit: r631875 - in /commons/proper/configuration/branches/configuration2_experimental/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/configuration2/expr: ./ ExpressionEngine.java NodeAddData.java NodeHandler.java

Oliver, I'm not sure to follow you on the NodeHandler, could you explain 
the "big picture" behind it ? Does it mean the removal of 
ConfigurationNode ?

Re: svn commit: r631875 - in /commons/proper/configuration/branches/configuration2_experimental/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/configuration2/expr: ./ ExpressionEngine.java NodeAddData.java NodeHandler.java

Posted by Oliver Heger <ol...@oliver-heger.de>.
NodeHandler serves as an additional layer of abstraction between a 
hierarchical configuration and its node structure.

So far hierarchical configurations directly operate on ConfigurationNode 
objects, which means that the whole structure has to be present in 
memory as node objects. This is less suitable for other structures that 
are also hierarchical, but define their own object model, for instance 
JNDI or the Java preferences API.

The idea is now to access nodes only through a NodeHandler. With 
different implementation of this interface, a hierarchical configuration 
can deal with different node structures. ConfigurationNode would still 
be used by in-memory configurations; so there would be a corresponding 
handler implementation. Other implementations for JNDI contexts or Java 
Preferences could be created.

That's at least the theory. Will have to see how this works out in practice.
