My ideas aren’t good enough to be put into practice, but some kind of flag indicating empty, partially or fully loaded. Empty would mean that it hasn’t gone to disk to get the conf. Partial means that it read everything, but threw away most as not interesting (since the conf does not have order you have to read and parse it all). Full would mean that nothing was pitched. SwordBookMetaData.getProperty would need to be changed to determine whether the key is in memory or might be on disk and do the right thing. Or we could keep getProperty as it is and if you want one of the fields that is not stored (e.g. About) you have to call reload().</span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Maybe we could also cache that info into a separate file(s)? When mods.d.tar.gz is updated then the cache would be recomputed. In doing the computation, each conf would be read then pitched. Basically, the storage would be o.c.c.utils.Ini, if one file or IniSection, if many files.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">What do you think?</div></div></div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
