Interface IUserConfigurationDataStore

public interface IUserConfigurationDataStore

IUserConfigurationDataStore is the interface for storing user configuration data persistently. The interface is provided so that data can be stored in both a portal environment or a servlet environment. Portal provides a persistent storage that can be used and the servlet environment would have to provide a custom store. Note that there is one set of user configuration data. The data values in the map must all conform to the java.io.Serializable interface.
