Simply save and load field values to/from a file by adding an annotation to a field.

• class is registered
• Registration is looking for existing config file
• if found: apply all stored configs to all classes
• values are converted from String to Object and vice versa (see String2ValueConverter)

• fields must not be final

Here are some hints, how to use the lib. Refer to ConfigRegistration.java for more info.

@Configurable(comment = "Document this field", defValue = "false", spezis = {	"TYPE1", "TYPE2" })
private static boolean fieldBool;

options:

• comment: document the field
• defValue: default value if no value is stored yet. Optional for static fields, but recommended
• spezis: 0 or more "specializations". Makes it possible to store different values at the same time
• defValueSpezis: if you use spezis, use this instead of defValue
• category: force config category. This is useful if you have muliple different categories (files) in one class.

<fields with @Configurable:>

static
{
	ConfigRegistration.registerClass("yourCategory", <your class>.class);
}

<no @Configurables!!>

ConfigRegistration.registerConfigurableCallback("<your category>", new IConfigObserver()
{
    @Override
    public void afterApply(IConfigClient configClient)
    {
        // called after all values were applied.
    }
});

If you have instance (non-static) fields, you have to apply the config after instantiation. If you want to apply a different spezi, you have to do so as well:

ConfigRegistration.applySpezis(obj, cat, spezi);

ConfigRegistration.save("<yourCategory>");

Files are saved as config/.xml
