 /**

  * <p>

  * A factory class that creates a composite configuration from an XML based

  * <em>configuration definition file</em>.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * This class provides an easy and flexible means for loading multiple

  * configuration sources and combining the results into a single configuration

  * object. The sources to be loaded are defined in an XML document that can

  * contain certain tags representing the different supported configuration

  * classes. If such a tag is found, the corresponding <code>Configuration</code>

  * class is instantiated and initialized using the classes of the

  * <code>beanutils</code> package (namely

  * <code>{@link org.apache.commons.configuration.beanutils.XMLBeanDeclaration XMLBeanDeclaration}</code>

  * will be used to extract the configuration's initialization parameters, which

  * allows for complex initialization scenarios).

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * It is also possible to add custom tags to the configuration definition file.

  * For this purpose register your own <code>ConfigurationProvider</code>

  * implementation for your tag using the <code>addConfigurationProvider()</code>

  * method. This provider will then be called when the corresponding custom tag

  * is detected. For the default configuration classes providers are already

  * registered.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * The configuration definition file has the following basic structure:

  * </p>

  * <p>

  *

  * <pre>

  * <configuration systemProperties="properties file name">

  *   <header>

  *     <!-- Optional meta information about the composite configuration -->

  *   </header>

  *   <override>

  *     <!-- Declarations for override configurations -->

  *   </override>

  *   <additional>

  *     <!-- Declarations for union configurations -->

  *   </additional>

  * </configuration>

  * </pre>

  *

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * The name of the root element (here <code>configuration</code>) is

  * arbitrary. The optional systemProperties attribute identifies the path to

  * a property file containing properties that should be added to the system

  * properties. If specified on the root element, the system properties are

  * set before the rest of the configuration is processed.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * There are two sections (both of them are optional) for declaring

  * <em>override</em> and <em>additional</em> configurations. Configurations

  * in the former section are evaluated in the order of their declaration, and

  * properties of configurations declared earlier hide those of configurations

  * declared later. Configurations in the latter section are combined to a union

  * configuration, i.e. all of their properties are added to a large hierarchical

  * configuration. Configuration declarations that occur as direct children of

  * the root element are treated as override declarations.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * Each configuration declaration consists of a tag whose name is associated

  * with a <code>ConfigurationProvider</code>. This can be one of the

  * predefined tags like <code>properties</code>, or <code>xml</code>, or

  * a custom tag, for which a configuration provider was registered. Attributes

  * and sub elements with specific initialization parameters can be added. There

  * are some reserved attributes with a special meaning that can be used in every

  * configuration declaration:

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * <table border="1">

  * <tr>

  * <th>Attribute</th>

  * <th>Meaning</th>

  * </tr>

  * <tr>

  * <td valign="top"><code>config-name</code></td>

  * <td>Allows to specify a name for this configuration. This name can be used

  * to obtain a reference to the configuration from the resulting combined

  * configuration (see below).</td>

  * </tr>

  * <tr>

  * <td valign="top"><code>config-at</code></td>

  * <td>With this attribute an optional prefix can be specified for the

  * properties of the corresponding configuration.</td>

  * </tr>

  * <tr>

  * <td valign="top"><code>config-optional</code></td>

  * <td>Declares a configuration as optional. This means that errors that occur

  * when creating the configuration are ignored. (However

  * <code>{@link org.apache.commons.configuration.event.ConfigurationErrorListener}</code>s

  * registered at the builder instance will get notified about this error: they

  * receive an event of type <code>EVENT_ERR_LOAD_OPTIONAL</code>. The key

  * property of this event contains the name of the optional configuration source

  * that caused this problem.)</td>

  * </tr>

  * </table>

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * The optional <em>header</em> section can contain some meta data about the

  * created configuration itself. For instance, it is possible to set further

  * properties of the <code>NodeCombiner</code> objects used for constructing

  * the resulting configuration.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * The default configuration object returned by this builder is an instance of the

  * <code>{@link CombinedConfiguration}</code> class. The return value of the

  * <code>getConfiguration()</code> method can be casted to this type, and the

  * <code>getConfiguration(boolean)</code> method directly declares

  * <code>CombinedConfiguration</code> as return type. This allows for

  * convenient access to the configuration objects maintained by the combined

  * configuration (e.g. for updates of single configuration objects). It has also

  * the advantage that the properties stored in all declared configuration

  * objects are collected and transformed into a single hierarchical structure,

  * which can be accessed using different expression engines. The actual CombinedConfiguration

  * implementation can be overridden by specifying the class in the <em>config-class</em>

  * attribute of the result element.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * Additional ConfigurationProviders can be added by configuring them in the <em>header</em>

  * section.

  * <pre>

  * <providers>

  *   <provider config-tag="tag name" config-class="provider fully qualified class name"/>

  * </providers>

  * </pre>

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * Additional variable resolvers can be added by configuring them in the <em>header</em>

  * section.

  * <pre>

  * <lookups>

  *   <lookup config-prefix="prefix" config-class="StrLookup fully qualified class name"/>

  * </lookups>

  * </pre>

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * All declared override configurations are directly added to the resulting

  * combined configuration. If they are given names (using the

  * <code>config-name</code> attribute), they can directly be accessed using

  * the <code>getConfiguration(String)</code> method of

  * <code>CombinedConfiguration</code>. The additional configurations are

  * altogether added to another combined configuration, which uses a union

  * combiner. Then this union configuration is added to the resulting combined

  * configuration under the name defined by the <code>ADDITIONAL_NAME</code>

  * constant.

  * </p>

  * <p>

  * Implementation note: This class is not thread-safe. Especially the

  * <code>getConfiguration()</code> methods should be called by a single thread

  * only.
