Description
Defines the configuration object. Attributes have sensible defaults that can be overridden by values in configuration files which are loaded on request
Pathnames passed in the "cfgfiles" attribute are loaded and their contents merged with the values passed to the configuration class constructor

-
Directory. Defaults to the application's install directory
binsdir
-
Directory. Defaults to the application's bin directory. Prefers "appldir"/bin but defaults to Configs
installsitebin
attribute cfgfiles
-
An array reference of non empty simple strings. The list of configuration files to load when instantiating an instance of the configuration class. Defaults to an empty list
