0.3.0 - 20-02-2013

• addFromXXX methods have been renamed into mergeXXX, giving the user the capability to choose whether to overwrite or keep existing matching properties:

  // dinamically merge properties from input Properties object into the
  // current instance's properties, without overwriting eventually existing   properties
  p.merge(anotherPropertiesInstance, false);
  
  // dinamically merge properties from input JSON object into the
  // current instance's properties, overwriting existing ones
  p.mergeJSON('{"test.key.3":"value 3","test.key.4":"value 4"}', true);
  

• added very simple event management: now one may listen to "add property" events triggered when a new property is added at runtime

  p.onAdd.listen((PropertiesEvent e) => print("Received: " + e.type));
  

0.2.0 - 17-02-2013

• Added some tools to work with JSON objects too

  // create a new instance from a JSON map
  Properties p = new Properties.fromJSON(jsonMap);
  
  // export the (whole) content as a JSON map
  p.toJSON(prefix:"keyprefix", suffix:"keysuffix");
  
  // dinamically add new properties to the current instance from JSON
  p.addFromJSON('{"test.key.3":"value 3","test.key.4":"value 4"}');
