Method Detail

addConfigureInterface

void addConfigureInterface(ConfigureInterface configSource)

Add a ConfigureInterface to the search chain for Named Values. The item is added at the end of the chain to be searched.
This object will search its getNamedValue() before it resorts to any stored ConfigureInterface objects in the stored chain.

insertConfigureInterface

void insertConfigureInterface(ConfigureInterface configSource)

Insert a ConfigureInterface to the search chain for Named Values. The item is inserted at the beginning of the chain to be searched.
This object will search its getNamedValue() before it resorts to any stored ConfigureInterface objects in the stored chain.

getNamedValue

java.lang.String getNamedValue(java.lang.String keyName,
                               java.lang.String itemName)

Retrieve an item that may be in the configuration sources. An item is identified by a parent key or section name--like in an INI file "section"--and the name of the item in that section.
This object will search its getNamedValue() before it resorts to any stored ConfigureInterface objects in the stored chain.

Returns:

the retrieved String value or null if no such value exists.

getConfigurePaths

java.lang.String getConfigurePaths()

Retrieve a String containing a File.pathSeparator delimited list of all the file paths in the configuration file chain.
