Package org.apache.avalon.framework.configuration
Component configuration interfaces and XML-based implementations.
The org.apache.avalon.framework.configuration
package contains primarily:
- The Configurable interface, which a Component implements if it needs to be configured with externally-specified data before it is initialized.
- The Configuration interface, an implementation of which will be passed to Components that implement Configurable.
- The Reconfigurable interface, which Components implement if they need to be reconfigured at runtime.
- Various classes providing the default XML-based implementation of Configuration. The mapping from XML to Configuration tree is described in DefaultConfigurationBuilder.

Interface Summary Interface Description Configurable This interface should be implemented by classes that need to be configured with custom parameters before initialization.Configuration Configuration
is a interface encapsulating a configuration node used to retrieve configuration values.Reconfigurable ExtendsConfigurable
to allow reconfiguration at runtime. -
Exception Summary Exception Description ConfigurationException Thrown when aConfigurable
