32  /**
33   * <p>
34   * {@code CompositeConfiguration} allows you to add multiple {@code Configuration} objects to an aggregated
35   * configuration. If you add Configuration1, and then Configuration2, any properties shared will mean that the value
36   * defined by Configuration1 will be returned. If Configuration1 doesn't have the property, then Configuration2 will be
37   * checked. You can add multiple different types or the same type of properties file.
38   * </p>
39   * <p>
40   * When querying properties the order in which child configurations have been added is relevant. To deal with property
41   * updates, a so-called <em>in-memory configuration</em> is used. Per default, such a configuration is created
42   * automatically. All property writes target this special configuration. There are constructors which allow you to
43   * provide a specific in-memory configuration. If used that way, the in-memory configuration is always the last one in
44   * the list of child configurations. This means that for query operations all other configurations take precedence.
45   * </p>
46   * <p>
47   * Alternatively it is possible to mark a child configuration as in-memory configuration when it is added. In this case
48   * the treatment of the in-memory configuration is slightly different: it remains in the list of child configurations at
49   * the position it was added, i.e. its priority for property queries can be defined by adding the child configurations
50   * in the correct order.
51   * </p>
52   * <p>
53   * This configuration class uses a {@code Synchronizer} to control concurrent access. While all methods for reading and
54   * writing configuration properties make use of this {@code Synchronizer} per default, the methods for managing the list
55   * of child configurations and the in-memory configuration
56   * ({@code addConfiguration(), getNumberOfConfigurations(), removeConfiguration(),
57   * getConfiguration(), getInMemoryConfiguration()}) are guarded, too. Because most methods for accessing configuration
58   * data delegate to the list of child configurations, the thread-safety of a {@code CompositeConfiguration} object also
59   * depends on the {@code Synchronizer} objects used by these children.
60   * </p>
