Method Detail

getConfiguration

Configuration getConfiguration(String configName)
                               throws Exception

Gets a clone of the Configuration registered under the given name.

The returned object is a clone of the internally held configuration, so any changes made to it by the caller will not affect the internal state of this registry.

Parameters:

configName - the name of the configuration

Returns:

a Configuration. Will not be null.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if no configuration is registered under configName

Exception

registerConfiguration

void registerConfiguration(String configName,

                           throws CloneNotSupportedException

Register the given configuration under the given name.

The configuration will be cloned before being stored internally, so the copy under the control of the registry will not be affected by any external changes.

Parameters:

configName - the name of the configuration

config - the configuration

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException

IllegalStateException - if a configuration is already registered under configName

unregisterConfiguration

void unregisterConfiguration(String configName)

Unregisters the named configuration.

Parameters:

configName - the name of the configuration

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if no configuration is registered under configName

getConfigurationNames
