public class Configuration
extends Object
implements Iterable<Map.Entry<String,String>>, Writable
```
Provides access to configuration parameters.
Resources

Configurations are specified by resources. A resource contains a set of name/value pairs as XML data. Each resource is named by either a String or by a Path. If named by a String, then the classpath is examined for a file with that name. If named by a Path, then the local filesystem is examined directly, without referring to the classpath.
Unless explicitly turned off, Hadoop by default specifies two resources, loaded in-order from the classpath:
1. core-default.xml: Read-only defaults for hadoop.
2. core-site.xml: Site-specific configuration for a given hadoop installation.
Applications may add additional resources, which are loaded subsequent to these resources in the order they are added.
Final Parameters

Configuration parameters may be declared final. Once a resource declares a value final, no subsequently-loaded resource can alter that value. For example, one might define a final parameter with:
```
 <property>
 <name>dfs.hosts.include</name>
 <value>/etc/hadoop/conf/hosts.include</value>
 <final>true</final>
 </property>
```
Administrators typically define parameters as final in core-site.xml for values that user applications may not alter.
Variable Expansion

Value strings are first processed for variable expansion. The available properties are:
1. Other properties defined in this Configuration; and, if a name is undefined here,
2. Properties in System.getProperties().
For example, if a configuration resource contains the following property definitions:
```
 <property>
 <name>basedir</name>
 <value>/user/${user.name}</value>
 </property>
 
 <property>
 <name>tempdir</name>
 <value>${basedir}/tmp</value>
 </property>
```
When conf.get("tempdir") is called, then ${basedir} will be resolved to another property in this Configuration, while ${user.name} would then ordinarily be resolved to the value of the System property with that name. By default, warnings will be given to any deprecated configuration parameters and these are suppressible by configuring log4j.logger.org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration.deprecation in log4j.properties file.

 - addDeprecations
```
public static void addDeprecations(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration.DeprecationDelta[] deltas)
```
 Adds a set of deprecated keys to the global deprecations. This method is lockless. It works by means of creating a new DeprecationContext based on the old one, and then atomically swapping in the new context. If someone else updated the context in between us reading the old context and swapping in the new one, we try again until we win the race.
 
 Parameters:
 deltas - The deprecations to add.
 - addDeprecation
```
@Deprecated
public static void addDeprecation(String key,
 String[] newKeys,
 String customMessage)
```
 Deprecated. use addDeprecation(String key, String newKey, String customMessage) instead
 
 Adds the deprecated key to the global deprecation map. It does not override any existing entries in the deprecation map. This is to be used only by the developers in order to add deprecation of keys, and attempts to call this method after loading resources once, would lead to UnsupportedOperationException If a key is deprecated in favor of multiple keys, they are all treated as aliases of each other, and setting any one of them resets all the others to the new value. If you have multiple deprecation entries to add, it is more efficient to use #addDeprecations(DeprecationDelta[] deltas) instead.
 
 Parameters:
 key -
 newKeys -
 customMessage -
 - addDeprecation
```

 Returns:
 property value as a compiled Pattern, or defaultValue
 - setPattern
```
public void setPattern(String name,
 Pattern pattern)

 Parameters:
 name - property name
 pattern - new value
 - getPropertySources
```
@InterfaceStability.Unstable
public String[] getPropertySources(String name)
```
 Gets information about why a property was set. Typically this is the path to the resource objects (file, URL, etc.) the property came from, but it can also indicate that it was set programatically, or because of the command line.
 
 Parameters:
 name - - The property name to get the source of.
 
 Returns:
 null - If the property or its source wasn't found. Otherwise, returns a list of the sources of the resource. The older sources are the first ones in the list. So for example if a configuration is set from the command line, and then written out to a file that is read back in the first entry would indicate that it was set from the command line, while the second one would indicate the file that the new configuration was read in from.

dumpConfiguration

public static void dumpConfiguration(Configuration config,

                              throws IOException

Writes properties and their attributes (final and resource) to the given Writer.

When propertyName is not empty, and the property exists in the configuration, the format of the output would be,

  {
    "property": {
      "key" : "key1",
      "value" : "value1",
      "isFinal" : "key1.isFinal",
      "resource" : "key1.resource"
    }
  }

When propertyName is null or empty, it behaves same as dumpConfiguration(Configuration, Writer), the output would be,

  { "properties" :
      [ { key : "key1",
          value : "value1",
          isFinal : "key1.isFinal",
          resource : "key1.resource" },
        { key : "key2",
          value : "value2",
          isFinal : "ke2.isFinal",
          resource : "key2.resource" }
       ]
   }

When propertyName is not empty, and the property is not found in the configuration, this method will throw an IllegalArgumentException.
