> Support setting default values for configurations
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CONFIGURATION-559
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-559
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 1.9
> Reporter: Oliver Heger
> Fix For: 2.0
>
>
> In version 1.x it was possible to set a few default values for the properties
> of configuration instances (e.g. the list delimiter or the expression engine
> for XML configurations). These settings were used if they were not overridden
> for a specific configuration instance. This mechanism was mainly based on
> static fields which is unflexible and thread-hostile.
> In the new design, configuration builders are used to create configuration
> objects. Parameter objects can be passed to the builder allowing a
> fine-grained configuration of the instances to be created. Because there are
> many settings it would be helpful if there was a way to define certain
> default values. An application creating multiple configuration instances with
> the same settings could define the used defaults once and then reuse them.
> Default settings should be possible for all parameters object supported by
> the different builder implementations. No static fields should be used to
> avoid the drawbacks of the current design.
