Description copied from interface: ISettingHandler

Method to convert XML element (omSetting) to an object that will be placed into a configuration map. The type of the returned object is implicitly determined by the class implementing the ISettingHandler interface.

Specified by:

getSetting in interface ISettingHandler

Parameters:

strName - Name of setting being processed.

strConfigurationBase - Configuration directory (used for file-oriented settings).

mapSettingHandlers - Map that associates types with ISettingHandler classes.

mapSettingsGlobal - Configuration map containing top-level settings that might be needed for this setting. (E.g., a certificate handler might need information about a previously-configured keystore component.)

settingsParent - Configuration map or list (if any) that will contain this setting.

omSetting - XML element that is being converted to Object.

Returns:

Object that will be put into a configuration Map, associated with given name.

Throws:

Exception
