/**
 * 

* A Map based Configuration. *

*

* This implementation of the {@code Configuration} interface is initialized with a {@link java.util.Map}. The methods * of the {@code Configuration} interface are implemented on top of the content of this map. The following storage * scheme is used: *

*

* Property keys are directly mapped to map keys, i.e. the {@code getProperty()} method directly performs a * {@code get()} on the map. Analogously, {@code setProperty()} or {@code addProperty()} operations write new data into * the map. If a value is added to an existing property, a {@link java.util.List} is created, which stores the values of * this property. *

*

* An important use case of this class is to treat a map as a {@code Configuration} allowing access to its data through * the richer interface. This can be a bit problematic in some cases because the map may contain values that need not * adhere to the default storage scheme used by typical configuration implementations, e.g. regarding lists. In such * cases care must be taken when manipulating the data through the {@code Configuration} interface, e.g. by calling * {@code addProperty()}; results may be different than expected. *

*

* The handling of list delimiters is a bit different for this configuration implementation: When a property of type * String is queried, it is passed to the current {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.convert.ListDelimiterHandler * ListDelimiterHandler} which may generate multiple values. Note that per default a list delimiter handler is set which * does not do any list splitting, so this feature is disabled. It can be enabled by setting a properly configured * {@code ListDelimiterHandler} implementation, e.g. a * {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.convert.DefaultListDelimiterHandler DefaultListDelimiterHandler} object. *

*

* Notice that list splitting is only performed for single string values. If a property has multiple values, the single * values are not split even if they contain the list delimiter character. *

*

* As the underlying {@code Map} is directly used as store of the property values, the thread-safety of this * {@code Configuration} implementation depends on the map passed to the constructor. *

*

* Notes about type safety: For properties with multiple values this implementation creates lists of type {@code Object} * and stores them. If a property is assigned another value, the value is added to the list. This can cause problems if * the map passed to the constructor already contains lists of other types. This should be avoided, otherwise it cannot * be guaranteed that the application might throw {@code ClassCastException} exceptions later. *
