/**
*
* A hierarchical composite configuration class.
*
*
* This class maintains a list of configuration objects, which can be added using the diverse {@code addConfiguration()}
* methods. After that the configurations can be accessed either by name (if one was provided when the configuration was
* added) or by index. For the whole set of managed configurations a logical node structure is constructed. For this
* purpose a {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.tree.NodeCombiner NodeCombiner} object can be set. This makes it
* possible to specify different algorithms for the combination process.
*
*
* The big advantage of this class is that it creates a truly hierarchical structure of all the properties stored in the
* contained configurations - even if some of them are no hierarchical configurations per se. So all enhanced features
* provided by a hierarchical configuration (e.g. choosing an expression engine) are applicable.
*
*
* The class works by registering itself as an event listener at all added configurations. So it gets notified whenever
* one of these configurations is changed and can invalidate its internal node structure. The next time a property is
* accessed the node structure will be re-constructed using the current state of the managed configurations. Note that,
* depending on the used {@code NodeCombiner}, this may be a complex operation.
*
*
* Because of the way a {@code CombinedConfiguration} is working it has more or less view character: it provides a logic
* view on the configurations it contains. In this constellation not all methods defined for hierarchical configurations
* - especially methods that update the stored properties - can be implemented in a consistent manner. Using such
* methods (like {@code addProperty()}, or {@code clearProperty()} on a {@code CombinedConfiguration} is not strictly
* forbidden, however, depending on the current {@link NodeCombiner} and the involved properties, the results may be
* different than expected. Some examples may illustrate this:
*
*
* - Imagine a {@code CombinedConfiguration} cc containing two child configurations with the following
* content:
*
* - user.properties
* -
*
*
* gui.background = blue
* gui.position = (10, 10, 400, 200)
*
*
*
* - default.properties
* -
*
*
* gui.background = black
* gui.foreground = white
* home.dir = /data
*
*
*
*
* As a {@code NodeCombiner} a {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.tree.OverrideCombiner OverrideCombiner} is used.
* This combiner will ensure that defined user settings take precedence over the default values. If the resulting
* {@code CombinedConfiguration} is queried for the background color, {@code blue} will be returned because this value
* is defined in {@code user.properties}. Now consider what happens if the key {@code gui.background} is removed from
* the {@code CombinedConfiguration}:
*
*
* cc.clearProperty("gui.background");
*
*
* Will a {@code cc.containsKey("gui.background")} now return false? No, it won't! The {@code clearProperty()}
* operation is executed on the node set of the combined configuration, which was constructed from the nodes of the two
* child configurations. It causes the value of the background node to be cleared, which is also part of the
* first child configuration. This modification of one of its child configurations causes the
* {@code CombinedConfiguration} to be re-constructed. This time the {@code OverrideCombiner} cannot find a
* {@code gui.background} property in the first child configuration, but it finds one in the second, and adds it to the
* resulting combined configuration. So the property is still present (with a different value now).
* - {@code addProperty()} can also be problematic: Most node combiners use special view nodes for linking parts of
* the original configurations' data together. If new properties are added to such a special node, they do not belong to
* any of the managed configurations and thus hang in the air. Using the same configurations as in the last example, the
* statement
*
*
* addProperty("database.user", "scott");
*
*
* would cause such a hanging property. If now one of the child configurations is changed and the
* {@code CombinedConfiguration} is re-constructed, this property will disappear! (Add operations are not problematic if
* they result in a child configuration being updated. For instance an {@code addProperty("home.url", "localhost");}
* will alter the second child configuration - because the prefix home is here already present; when the
* {@code CombinedConfiguration} is re-constructed, this change is taken into account.)
*
*
* Because of such problems it is recommended to perform updates only on the managed child configurations.
*
*
* Whenever the node structure of a {@code CombinedConfiguration} becomes invalid (either because one of the contained
* configurations was modified or because the {@code invalidate()} method was directly called) an event is generated. So
* this can be detected by interested event listeners. This also makes it possible to add a combined configuration into
* another one.
*
*
* Notes about thread-safety: This configuration implementation uses a {@code Synchronizer} object to protect instances
* against concurrent access. The concrete {@code Synchronizer} implementation used determines whether an instance of
* this class is thread-safe or not. In contrast to other implementations derived from
* {@link BaseHierarchicalConfiguration}, thread-safety is an issue here because the nodes structure used by this
* configuration has to be constructed dynamically when a child configuration is changed. Therefore, when multiple
* threads are involved which also manipulate one of the child configurations, a proper {@code Synchronizer} object
* should be set. Note that the {@code Synchronizer} objects used by the child configurations do not really matter.
* Because immutable in-memory nodes structures are used for them there is no danger that updates on child
* configurations could interfere with read operations on the combined configuration.
