get all properties that match a prefix as a map For example: my.collection.1.f.1=A1 my.collection.1.f.2=B1 my.collection.1.f.3=C1 my.collection.3.f.1=A3 my.collection.3.f.2=B3 my.collection.3.f.3=C3 Calling this method with prefix my.collection.1, returns a map with: f.1=A1 f.2=B1 f.3=C1

Parameters:

prefix -

Returns:

getCollection

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getCollection(java.lang.String context,
                                                                      java.lang.String propertyName)

convenience method: first check the context then the pure property name

getCollection

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getCollection(java.lang.Class contextClass,
                                                                      java.lang.String propertyName)

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getCollection(java.lang.Object contextObject,
                                                                      java.lang.String propertyName)

getGroupedCollection

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String>> getGroupedCollection(java.lang.String prefix)

Get all properties that match a prefix and group them. For example: my.collection.1.f.1=A1 my.collection.1.f.2=B1 my.collection.1.f.3=C1 my.collection.3.f.1=A3 my.collection.3.f.2=B3 my.collection.3.f.3=C3 Calling this method with prefix my.collection, returns a map with under the key "1" and "3" two maps containing "f.1" with their respective values. So the result is: [1=>[f.1=>A1, f.3=>C1, f.2=>B1], 3=>[f.1=>A3, f.3=>C3, f.2=>B3]] Often de index is not relevant, but having it in a map makes it a bit of a hassle to navigate (pre 1.5) Using " list.addAll(map.values()); " makes it easier.

Parameters:

prefix -

Returns:

log4jDebug

public void log4jDebug(java.lang.String s)
