Class Description

---

Specialization of abstract interface class ConfigurationPlugin, retrieves configuration data from the system environment.

Its priority value usually is Configuration.PRIO_ENVIRONMENT, which is higher than Configuration.PRIO_STANDARD but lower than Configuration.PRIO_CLI_ARGS.

Variable categories are used as a prefix together with an underscore '_'. This means, if variable LOCALE in category ALIB is accessed, the environment variable ALIB_LOCALE is read.

Category and Variable names are insensitive in respect to character case.
