/**
*
* A class that handles interpolation (variable substitution) for configuration
* objects.
*
*
* Each instance of AbstractConfiguration is associated with an
* object of this class. All interpolation tasks are delegated to this object.
*
*
* ConfigurationInterpolator works together with the
* StrSubstitutor class from Commons Lang. By extending
* StrLookup it is able to provide values for variables that
* appear in expressions.
*
*
* The basic idea of this class is that it can maintain a set of primitive
* StrLookup objects, each of which is identified by a special
* prefix. The variables to be processed have the form
* ${prefix:name}. ConfigurationInterpolator will
* extract the prefix and determine, which primitive lookup object is registered
* for it. Then the name of the variable is passed to this object to obtain the
* actual value. It is also possible to define a default lookup object, which
* will be used for variables that do not have a prefix or that cannot be
* resolved by their associated lookup object.
*
*
* When a new instance of this class is created it is initialized with a default
* set of primitive lookup objects. This set can be customized using the static
* methods registerGlobalLookup() and
* deregisterGlobalLookup(). Per default it contains the
* following standard lookup objects:
*
*
*
*
* Prefix
* Lookup object
*
*
* sys
* With this prefix a lookup object is associated that is able to resolve
* system properties.
*
*
* const
* The const prefix indicates that a variable is to be
* interpreted as a constant member field of a class (i.e. a field with the
* static final modifiers). The name of the variable must be of the form
* <full qualified class name>.<field name>, e.g.
* org.apache.commons.configuration.interpol.ConfigurationInterpolator.PREFIX_CONSTANTS
* .
*
*
*
*
* After an instance has been created the current set of lookup objects can be
* modified using the registerLookup() and
* deregisterLookup() methods. The default lookup object (that is
* invoked for variables without a prefix) can be set with the
* setDefaultLookup() method. (If a
* ConfigurationInterpolator instance is created by a
* configuration object, this lookup points to the configuration itself, so that
* variables are resolved using the configuration's properties. This ensures
* backward compatibility to earlier version of Commons Configuration.)
*
*
* Implementation node: Instances of this class are not thread-safe related to
* modifications of their current set of registered lookup objects. It is
* intended that each instance is associated with a single
* Configuration object and used for its interpolation tasks.
