| * <p> |
| * This package contains the implementations of <em>configuration builder</em> |
| * classes used to create new {@code Configuration} objects. |
| * </p> |
| * <p> |
| * In <em>Commons Configuration</em>, configuration builders are responsible for |
| * the creation and initialization of {@code Configuration} objects. The typical |
| * use case is that a builder is created and configured with initialization |
| * parameters defining specific settings for the configuration to be created. |
| * The builder can then be stored centrally. Each component requiring access to |
| * configuration information queries the builder for its managed |
| * {@code Configuration} and can read or write properties as its pleasure. |
| * </p> |
| * <h3>Important note</h3> |
| * <p> |
| * <strong>This package contains a number of interfaces that reflect the |
| * initialization parameters available for supported configuration implementations. |
| * These interfaces are not intended to be implemented by client code! When new |
| * features are added to the represented configuration classes corresponding new |
| * methods will be added to them. This can happen even in minor releases.</strong> |
