Hi Mikael, The product I am working on holds about 15 odd configurations which are specific to different process that run as part of the application. It is a core java app. So, every time a process starts the configuration is loaded on the fly. We store configurations in a properties file with a set of configurations for a process with a prefix "config_proc1" for 'proc1' process.
This is the reason why I have taken an example which loads configurations programmatically. So, we have 'p' object(in the snippet) is a subset of properties read from a properties file.
