/**
|
|
|
|
* This class organizes the access to config nodes in a tree. Nodes
|
|
|
|
* are identified by a relative path name, using a slash / as
|
|
|
|
* separator between levels. Each node can have user-visible and
|
|
|
|
* hidden properties. The two sets might be stored in the same
|
|
|
|
* ConfigNode, i.e. properties should have unique names per node. For
|
|
|
|
* each path there's also a second, separate namespace of key/value
|
|
|
|
* pairs. The intented use for that is saving state by sync sources
|
|
|
|
* close to, but without interfering with their configuration and the
|
|
|
|
* state maintained by the client library itself.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* A ConfigNode can list all its properties while the tree lists nodes
|
|
|
|
* at a specific level and creates nodes.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* This model is similar to the Funambol C++ DeviceManagementTree.
|
|
|
|
* Besides being implemented differently, it also provides additional
|
|
|
|
* functionality:
|
|
|
|
* - the same node can be opened more than once; in the client library
|
|
|
|
* the content of multiple instances is not synchronized and changes
|
|
|
|
* can get lost
|
|
|
|
* - nodes and the whole tree can be explicitly flushed
|
|
|
|
* - it distinguishes between user visible configuration options and
|
|
|
|
* hidden read/write properties
|
|
|
|
* - temporarily override values without saving them (see FilterConfigNode
|
|
|
|
* decorator)
|
|
|
|
* - improved access to properties inside nodes (iterating, deleting)
