/**
 * 
{@code CompositeConfiguration} allows you to add multiple {@code Configuration}
 * objects to an aggregated configuration. If you add Configuration1, and then Configuration2,
 * any properties shared will mean that the value defined by Configuration1
 * will be returned. If Configuration1 doesn't have the property, then
 * Configuration2 will be checked. You can add multiple different types or the
 * same type of properties file.

 * 
When querying properties the order in which child configurations have been
 * added is relevant. To deal with property updates, a so-called in-memory
 * configuration is used. Per default, such a configuration is created
 * automatically. All property writes target this special configuration. There
 * are constructors which allow you to provide a specific in-memory configuration.
 * If used that way, the in-memory configuration is always the last one in the
 * list of child configurations. This means that for query operations all other
 * configurations take precedence.

 * 
Alternatively it is possible to mark a child configuration as in-memory
 * configuration when it is added. In this case the treatment of the in-memory
 * configuration is slightly different: it remains in the list of child
 * configurations at the position it was added, i.e. its priority for property
 * queries can be defined by adding the child configurations in the correct
 * order.

 * 

 * This configuration class uses a {@code Synchronizer} to control concurrent
 * access. While all methods for reading and writing configuration properties
 * make use of this {@code Synchronizer} per default, the methods for managing
 * the list of child configurations and the in-memory configuration
 * ({@code addConfiguration(), getNumberOfConfigurations(), removeConfiguration(),
 * getConfiguration(), getInMemoryConfiguration()}) are guarded, too. Because
 * most methods for accessing configuration data delegate to the list of child
 * configurations, the thread-safety of a {@code CompositeConfiguration}
 * object also depends on the {@code Synchronizer} objects used by these
 * children.
