[Configuration]: Hierarchical configurations ?
Hi,
I now have a configuration 'configuration1.xml' like
<configuration>
<xml fileName="SampleConfiguratie.xml"/>
</configuration>
Which gives me - with the following code - the keys/values provided in
SampleConfiguratie.xml:
final ConfigurationFactory configurationFactory = new
ConfigurationFactory();
configurationFactory.setConfigurationURL(...)
configuration=configurationFactory.getConfiguration();
Is it possible to create a second configuration configuration that refers to
the first ('configuration1.xml'), like:
<configuration>
<configuration fileName="configuration1.xml"/>
</configuration>
and still get the same keys/values after getConfiguration() ?
Thanks for any replies,
Michiel

Michiel,
I did implement the desired feature in DefaultConfigurationBuilder. You
can now use the new tag <configuration fileName="..."/> to include
another configuration definition file, just as in your example. The new
version is available in subversion.

Yeah,
This is what I wanted to know - although it's not exactly the answer I
hoped for ...
If you find out how it can be done with DefaultConfigurationBuilder - the
class you mentioned -, please let us know !
Thanks for your quick response.

Hi Michiel,
not sure if I understand you correctly: you want a configuration
definition file (to be processed by a ConfigurationFactory) to be
included into another one?
In the current release (version 1.2) this is not supported. In
subversion [1] there is a new class DefaultConfigurationBuilder, which
can be used as alternative to ConfigurationFactory. The design of this
class makes it possible to add such an include feature quite easily. I
will have a look how this can be done. Note that there is still work on
this class and its documentation in progress.
Unfortunately this won't help you with your current problem.
