> Since properties will no longer need to be defined in the forrest.xconf file it will be possible to enable dynamic reloading of properties at runtime.
> All we need to do is keep a check of when the properties file was last loaded and check this against the last modified time of the properties file. When necessary reload.
> This should be configurable though as it has implications on performance since the check will be made every time an property value is retreived.
> I suggest the following options:
> - always check and reload when the file changes
> - only check and reload when a property value is not currently defined
> - only check and reload every X minutes (should above to options should apply here too)
> - never check and reload
> The initial settings for this reload option can be set in the properties file itself and applied when it is loaded/reloaded. Of course, this means if it is set to "never check and reload" a restart will be required to have changes take effect. Therefore this setting is for production servers only.
