public interface Configurable

Configurable is a simple interface used to pass configuration information to an object. The implementing object is ultimately responsible for maintaining any of that configuration information in any fashion it so desires. Most will create a Configuration instance to manage the data in a consistent, and easy to access fashion.

A Configurable object should be considered 'configured' after receiving a call to setConfig(). No additional configuration activities should be expected of the instance, and so setConfig() should be the last call in any set of configuration commands against an object.
