I guess I'm trying to let the perceived need for separate
(smaller) jar files guide me in separating projects.
Funny, after seeing the term "common" I gravitated toward that
over "impl". I plan to rename to "common" and make it a separate
project. It will contain things which consumers may find convenient,
but not necessary for their consumption of IdAS.

1. I'd vote for XMLConfigurationHandler.
2. In IConfigurationHandler.configure, is the mapConfigurationSettings
parameter only an OUT parameter?
3. I think Jim's approach with IdAS has been to do separate projects
though I don't mind separate packages. Maybe Jim can weigh in on why
the move toward separate projects. I think that was mostly so
developers could choose just the pieces that they absolutely needed.

Here's what I've done in my local workspace for the configuration
stuff. I'd like some feedback before checking in.
(1) Changed org.eclipse.higgins.configuration.common to
org.eclipse.configuration.impl. Includes two packages:
...configuration.common and ...configuration.xml. The first holds
ConfigurableComponentFactoryHelper, and the second holds all of the
other implementation stuff from Mike.
(2) Moved all XML-specific stuff (ISettingHandler) out of
org.eclipse.higgins.configuration.api.
(3) Added IConfigurationHandler interface in the api package. It has
the following three methods, modeled after Mike's ConfigurationHandler
class:
public abstract void setConfigurationBase(String str); -- set
directory for finding config files (if any)
public abstract boolean configure(java.util.Map
mapConfigurationSettings) throws Exception; -- create config mapping
public abstract java.util.Map getSettings() throws Exception; --
return config mapping
Except for package names, Mike's code should still work. (Any votes
for changing ConfigurationHandler to XMLConfigurationHandler?)
Comments? I wasn't sure about whether to do separate projects for the
impl stuff vs. separate packages.
