Interface Configuration<T>

All Known Implementing Classes:

ValidatingConfigurationWrapper

public interface Configuration<T>

Object passed into a service contributor method that allows the method provide contributed values to the service's configuration. A service can collect contributions in three different ways:

• As an un-ordered collection of values
• As an ordered list of values (where each value has a unique id, pre-requisites and post-requisites)
• As a map of keys and values

This implementation is used for un-ordered configuration data. The service defines the type of contribution, in terms of a base class or service interface. Contributions must be compatible with the type.
