Description

The lumiera::Config wrapper class addresses two issues.

First, it registers startup and shutdown hooks to bring up the config system as early as possible. Later, on application main initialisation, the global config interface is opened and wrapped for convenient access from C++ code.

Note

This was created as part of a first draft towards an application wide configuration system. Later (around 2012) it became clear that we can not judge the requirements for such a system yet, so we deferred the topic altogether. Meanwhile, this facade is sporadically used to mark the necessity to retrieve some "parametrisation values".

Warning

as a preliminary solution, the original configuration system draft was detached and replaced by an ini file solution based on lib Boost.

Todo:

there ought to be an external Interface for the Config subsystem. But the full-blown Config system isn't implemented yet anyway
