    • Method Detail

      • getInstance

        public static JiveProperties getInstance()
        Returns a singleton instance of JiveProperties.
        Returns:
        an instance of JiveProperties.
      • init

        public void init()
        For internal use only. This method allows for the reloading of all properties from the values in the database. This is required since it's quite possible during the setup process that a database connection will not be available till after this class is initialized. Thus, if there are existing properties in the database we will want to reload this class after the setup process has been completed.
      • getChildrenNames

        public Collection<String> getChildrenNames​(String parentKey)
        Return all children property names of a parent property as a Collection of String objects. For example, given the properties X.Y.A, X.Y.B, and X.Y.C, then the child properties of X.Y are X.Y.A, X.Y.B, and X.Y.C. The method is not recursive; ie, it does not return children of children.
        Parameters:
        parentKey - the name of the parent property.
        Returns:
        all child property names for the given parent.
      • getPropertyNames

        public Collection<String> getPropertyNames()
        Returns all property names as a Collection of String values.
        Returns:
        all property names.
      • put

        Parameters:
        key - The name of the property
