    • Method Detail

      • setProperty

         abstract void setProperty(String propertyName, Object property)

        Sets the property with the specified name to the specified value. Callingthis method would first trigger a PropertyChangeEvent that willbe dispatched to all VetoableChangeListeners. In case no complaints(PropertyVetoException) have been received, the property will be actuallychanged and a PropertyChangeEvent will be dispatched.

        Parameters:
        propertyName - the name of the property to change.
        property - the new value of the specified property.
      • setProperty

         abstract void setProperty(String propertyName, Object property, boolean isSystem)

        Sets the property with the specified name to the specified value. Callingthis method would first trigger a PropertyChangeEvent that willbe dispatched to all VetoableChangeListeners. In case no complaints(PropertyVetoException) have been received, the property will be actuallychanged and a PropertyChangeEvent will be dispatched. This method alsoallows the caller to specify whether or not the specified property is asystem one.

        Parameters:
        propertyName - the name of the property to change.
        property - the new value of the specified property.
        isSystem - specifies whether or not the property being set is aSystem property and should be resolved against the system property set.
      • setProperties

         abstract void setProperties(Map<String, Object> properties)

        Sets a set of specific properties to specific values as a batch operationmeaning that first VetoableChangeListeners are asked toapprove the modifications of the specified properties to the specifiedvalues, then the modifications are performed if no complaints have beenraised in the form of PropertyVetoException and finallyPropertyChangeListeners are notified about the changes ofeach of the specified properties. The batch operations allows theConfigurationService implementations to optimize, forexample, the saving of the configuration which in this case can beperformed only once for the setting of multiple properties.

        Parameters:
        properties - a Map of property names to their new values tobe set.
      • getProperty

         abstract Object getProperty(String propertyName)

        Returns the value of the property with the specified name or null if nosuch property exists.

        Parameters:
        propertyName - the name of the property that is being queried.
      • removeProperty

         abstract void removeProperty(String propertyName)

        Removes the property with the specified name. Callingthis method would first trigger a PropertyChangeEvent that willbe dispatched to all VetoableChangeListeners. In case no complaints(PropertyVetoException) have been received, the property will be actuallychanged and a PropertyChangeEvent will be dispatched.All properties with prefix propertyName will also be removed.

        Parameters:
        propertyName - the name of the property to change.
      • getPropertyNamesByPrefix

         abstract List<String> getPropertyNamesByPrefix(String prefix, boolean exactPrefixMatch)

        Returns a List of Strings containing all property namesthat have the specified prefix. The return value will include propertynames that have prefixes longer than specified, unless theexactPrefixMatch parameter is true.

        Example:

        Imagine a configuration service instance containing 2 properties only:net.java.sip.communicator.PROP1=value1net.java.sip.communicator.service.protocol.PROP1=value2

        A call to this method with a prefix="net.java.sip.communicator" andexactPrefixMatch=true would only return the first property -net.java.sip.communicator.PROP1, whereas the same call withexactPrefixMatch=false would return both properties as the second prefixincludes the requested prefix string.

        Parameters:
        prefix - a String containing the prefix (the non dotted non-capspart of a property name) that we're looking for.
        exactPrefixMatch - a boolean indicating whether the returnedproperty names should all have a prefix that is an exact match of thethe prefix param or whether properties with prefixes thatcontain it but are longer than it are also accepted.
      • getPropertyNamesBySuffix

         abstract List<String> getPropertyNamesBySuffix(String suffix)

        Returns a List of Strings containing the property namesthat have the specified suffix. A suffix is considered to be everythingafter the last dot in the property name.

        For example, imagine a configuration service instance containing twoproperties only:

        net.java.sip.communicator.PROP1=value1net.java.sip.communicator.service.protocol.PROP1=value2

        A call to this method with suffix equal to "PROP1" will returnboth properties, whereas the call with suffix equal to"communicator.PROP1" or "PROP2" will return an empty List. Thus,if the suffix argument contains a dot, nothing will be found.

        Parameters:
        suffix - the suffix for the property names to be returned
      • getString

         abstract String getString(String propertyName)
