Section Interfaces
Config sections can also be accessed via interface proxies using
{@link oaj.config.Config#getSectionAsInterface(String,Class)}.
While section maps and beans retrieve copies of the configuration data at the time of the method
call, section interfaces can also be use to set values in the underlying configuration.
// Example config file
[MySection]
string = foo
int = 123
enum = ONE
bean = {foo:'bar',baz:123}
int3dArray = [[[123,null],null],null]
bean1d3dListMap = {key:[[[[{foo:'bar',baz:123}]]]]}
// Example interface.
// Setters are optional.
public interface MyConfigInterface {
String getString();
void setString(String x);
int getInt();
void setInt(int x);
MyEnum getEnum();
void setEnum(MyEnum x);
MyBean getBean();
void setBean(MyBean x);
int[][][] getInt3dArray();
void setInt3dArray(int[][][] x);
Map<String,List<MyBean[][][]>> getBean1d3dListMap();
void setBean1d3dListMap(Map<String,List<MyBean[][][]>> x);
}
// Example usage.
Config c = Config.create("MyConfig.cfg").build();
MyConfigInterface ci = c.getSectionAsInterface("MySection", MyConfigInterface.class);
// Read a value.
int myInt = ci.getInt();
// Write a value.
ci.setBean(new MyBean());
// Commit your changes to the store.
c.commit();
