Method Detail

load

public void load(java.io.InputStream aInputStream)
          throws java.io.IOException

Loads name/value pairs from the given input stream.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getSubSet

public Properties getSubSet(java.lang.String aNamePrefix)

Returns a subset of the NameValuePairs where the names are starting with the specified prefix. As keys of the result set all start with the same prefix, this prfix is cut off.
E.g:
Given following set: {[A1,x], [A2,y], [A3,z], [B1,x], [B2,y]]}
getSubSet("A") returns {[1,x], [2,y], [3,z]}

Please note: the implementation of this method is slow, to be used only for initialisation tasks or alike!

Parameters:

aNamePrefix - the prefix that all returned pair names have in common.
