Hello Everyone,
Can anyone briefly explain the data flow of how proerties are delivered to PropertyConsumers
and what the carriers/function/data flows are - and - any gotchas?
If I create a descenedent of JDialog and implement PropertyConsumer - will I always get properties
delivered from my properties file? - Or should I also implement other Interfaces as well?
Is there a master properties file that contains all properties read from the properties files?
How about the following example:
in my properties file i assign the following:
myCustomDialog.prettyName=My Custom Dialog
myCustomDialog.notUsedOrAssignedYet01=foo
myCustomDialog.notUsedOrAssignedYet02=boo
myCustomDialog.notUsedOrAssignedYet02=soo
If I manipulate prettyName via getProperties and setProperties I assume I will receive those property values;
but what about if i don't currently reference notUsedOrAssignedYet01 in my getProperties and setProperties;
will it still be deliverered as a property to myCustomDialog?
I'm trying to get a better understanding of how the properties work and are delivered.
PS: If i instantiate some objects via the API inside my code but want them at least partially configured from settings
in the properties file, I guess I should have some related PropertyConsumer object that receives these settings and
distributes them on the fly to instantiated objects - does this sound reasonable?
Thanks.
