 /**

  * Decorator providing additional getters for any Configuration. This extended

  * Configuration supports more types:

  * <ul>

  *   <li>{@link java.net.URL}</li>

  *   <li>{@link java.util.Locale}</li>

  *   <li>{@link java.util.Date}</li>

  *   <li>{@link java.util.Calendar}</li>

  *   <li>{@link java.awt.Color}</li>

  *   <li>{@link java.net.InetAddress}</li>

  *   <li>{@link javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress} (requires Javamail in the classpath)</li>

  *   <li>{@link java.lang.Enum} (Java 5 enumeration types)</li>

  * </ul>

  *

  * Lists and arrays are available for all types.

  *

  * <h4>Example</h4>

  *

  * Configuration file <tt>config.properties</tt>:

  * <pre>

  * title.color = #0000FF

  * remote.host = 192.168.0.53

  * default.locales = fr,en,de

  * email.contact = ebourg@apache.org, oheger@apache.org

  * </pre>

  *

  * Usage:

  *

  * <pre>

  * DataConfiguration config = new DataConfiguration(new PropertiesConfiguration("config.properties"));

  *

  * // retrieve a property using a specialized getter

  * Color color = config.getColor("title.color");

  *

  * // retrieve a property using a generic getter

  * InetAddress host = (InetAddress) config.get(InetAddress.class, "remote.host");

  * Locale[] locales = (Locale[]) config.getArray(Locale.class, "default.locales");

  * List contacts = config.getList(InternetAddress.class, "email.contact");

  * </pre>

  *

  * <h4>Dates</h4>

  *

  * Date objects are expected to be formatted with the pattern <tt>yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss</tt>.

  * This default format can be changed by specifying another format in the

  * getters, or by putting a date format in the configuration under the key

  * <tt>org.apache.commons.configuration.format.date</tt>.
