Interface ApplicationProperties

All Known Implementing Classes:
ApplicationPropertiesImpl, MockApplicationProperties

@PublicApi
public interface ApplicationProperties

This can be used to lookup JIRA application properties. This uses a two stage strategy for finding property values. First the database is checked to see if a value exists. If it doesnt exist, it falls back to the file for a value. Once a key is placed in the database (via an upgrade task or UI interaction) then it will always be loaded from the database. NOTE : Be very careful with boolean property values. Because of the way OSPropertySets work, its impossible to distinguish between properties that have a false value and properties that have NO value. Therefore it is usually better to have a "String" property set to the value "true" or "false" and then use Boolean.valueOf() in it. This way it's possible to distinguish the absence of a property value from it being set to false.

Method Detail

getText

String getText(String name)

getDefaultBackedText

String getDefaultBackedText(String name)

setText

void setText(String name,
             String value)

getString

String getString(String name)

getDefaultKeys

Collection<String> getDefaultKeys()

getDefaultBackedString

String getDefaultBackedString(String name)

getDefaultString

String getDefaultString(String name)

setString

void setString(String name,
               String value)

getOption

boolean getOption(String key)

getKeys

Collection<String> getKeys()

setOption

void setOption(String key,
               boolean value)

getEncoding

String getEncoding()

getMailEncoding

String getMailEncoding()

getContentType

String getContentType()

refresh

void refresh()

getDefaultLocale

Locale getDefaultLocale()

getStringsWithPrefix

Collection<String> getStringsWithPrefix(String prefix)

asMap

Map<String,Object> asMap()
This will return all application and typed values. For example if the property is a boolean then a Boolean object will be returned. If an application property has a null value, then the key will still be in the Map.keySet()

Returns:
a map of key to actual value object
