Actually we have the generic methods ! :) I didn't add more specialized
get methods in DataConfiguration for the new types, instead I introduced
generic getters :
get(Class cls, String key)
getArray(Class cls, String key)
getList(Class cls, String key)
The specialized getters now call the generic getters (except for Date
and Calendar), this cuts the nloc by a half. It might be worth moving
these methods into AbstractConfiguration now, they offer the features of
DataConfiguration without the horde of methods. They would be a nice
addition to the Configuration interface for the next major release too.
Regarding the converters I believe we'll probably delegate this part to
another API sooner or later (Morph, Beanutils...), but I don't want to
add another core dependency. I was thinking about a pluggable conversion
system, we would provide a basic implementation derived from the current
code in PropertyConverter, and if someone wants more complex conversions
he could plug a custom converter using another API.

Fine, then we are pretty much in line.
