Hi OliverNo i cannot assign names to the configurations as i dont know them - the user should be able to add them so i dont know what the user will enter.
I will see that i provide you an example this weekend.
Thanks for your help. Oli Am 02.05.2012 21:44, schrieb Oliver Heger:

The a1.xml also contains some xml references like<xml fileName="a1_1.xml" /> <xml fileName="a1_2.xml" /> ... which the user can input. What is now the best practice to access these fields when i dont know the filenames (a1_1.xml, a1_2.xml, ...)? I only know that they have a root xml tag called<a1> At the moment i read in a CombinedConfiguration from my config.xml and use SubnodeConfiguration with getString("[@fileName]"), iterate over that and create for each a SubnodeConfiguration, but i think this is a code smell because if someone puts a1_1.xml (the xml block) into a1.xml (which still leads to valid xml) it wont work anymore because i reference directly to that file and not only to the field. So the user must always use<xml fileName="..." />. Furthermore i only need a1_1.xml in a class for identification. Lets assume i have a field<password> in a1_1.xml and in a1_2.xml. Both xml files start with<a1>. First i thought "just create a CombinedConfiguration and pass it down to all methods so i can access the configuration from everywhere". But the problem is one class needs to know if it should now take a1_1.xml or a1_2.xml. At the moment (as mentioned before) i pass a SubnodeConfiguration to my class in its constructor and access its field that way. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!Sorry, but I don't really understand what you want to achieve. Maybe you can elaborate some more on the use case?Just one suggestion (with limited understanding of your issue): Can you assign names to the included child configurations (using the config-name attribute) and then ask the combined configuration for specific sub configurations? CombinedConfiguration has the methods getConfigurationNames() and getConfiguration(String name).Oliver--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
