package org.apache.commons.configuration;

import java.util.HashMap;

A Configuration implementation that reads the platform specific environment variables using the map returned by System.getenv().
This configuration implementation is read-only. It allows read access to the defined OS environment variables, but their values cannot be changed. Any attempts to add or remove a property will throw an UnsupportedOperationException
Usage of this class is easy: After an instance has been created the get methods provided by the Configuration interface can be used for querying environment variables, e.g.:
Configuration envConfig = new EnvironmentConfiguration();
System.out.println("JAVA_HOME=" + envConfig.getString("JAVA_HOME");
