Interface ConfigurationSource

All Known Implementing Classes:
ChainedConfigurationSource, ContainerConfigurationSource
public interface ConfigurationSource
A source for component configurations which may reside outside the configuration within a component descriptor. A common usecase for this is to create a unified configuration for a set of components. For an application it is more convenient to present the user with a single configuration, instead of making users work directly with a Plexus configuration file which exposes component details including implementation, and wiring information.
