    Specified by:
    
    clear in interface IPreferences
    
    Throws:
    
    BackingStoreException - if this operation cannot be completed due to a failure in the backing store, or inability to communicate with it.
    See Also:
    IPreferences.removeNode()
  - flush
```
public void flush()
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Forces any changes in the contents of this preference node and its descendants to the persistent store. Once this method returns successfully, it is safe to assume that all changes made in the subtree rooted at this node prior to the method invocation have become permanent.
    Implementations are free to flush changes into the persistent store at any time. They do not need to wait for this method to be called.
    When a flush occurs on a newly created node, it is made persistent, as are any ancestors (and descendants) that have yet to be made persistent. Note however that any preference value changes in ancestors are not guaranteed to be made persistent.
    If this method is invoked on a node that has been removed with the IPreferences.removeNode() method, flushSpi() is invoked on this node, but not on others.
    
    Specified by:
    
    flush in interface IPreferences
    
    See Also:
    IPreferences.sync()
  - get
```
public String get(String name)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the current value of the string-valued preference with the given key. Returns the default-default value (the empty string "" ) if there is no preference with the given key, or if the current value cannot be treated as a string.
    
    Specified by:
    
    get in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    name - the key of the preference
    
    Returns:
    the string-valued preference
  - get
```
public String get(String key,
         String def)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the value associated with the specified key in this preference node. Returns the specified default if there is no value associated with the key, or the backing store is inaccessible.
    Some implementations may store default values in their backing stores. If there is no value associated with the specified key but there is such a stored default, it is returned in preference to the specified default.
    
    Specified by:
    
    get in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    key - key whose associated value is to be returned.
    def - the value to be returned in the event that this preference node has no value associated with key.
    
    Returns:
    the value associated with key, or def if no value is associated with key, or the backing store is inaccessible.
  - getBoolean
```
public boolean getBoolean(String name)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the current value of the boolean-valued preference with the given key. Returns the default-default value (false) if there is no preference with the given key, or if the current value cannot be treated as a boolean.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getBoolean in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    name - the key of the preference
    
    Returns:
    the boolean-valued preference
  - getBoolean
```
public boolean getBoolean(String key,
                 boolean def)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the boolean value represented by the string associated with the specified key in this preference node. Valid strings are "true", which represents true, and "false", which represents false. Case is ignored, so, for example, "TRUE" and "False" are also valid. This method is intended for use in conjunction with IPreferences.putBoolean(java.lang.String, boolean).
    Returns the specified default if there is no value associated with the key, the backing store is inaccessible, or if the associated value is something other than "true" or "false", ignoring case.
    If the implementation supports stored defaults and such a default exists and is accessible, it is used in preference to the specified default, unless the stored default is something other than "true" or "false", ignoring case, in which case the specified default is used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getBoolean in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    key - key whose associated value is to be returned as a boolean.
    def - the value to be returned in the event that this preference node has no value associated with key or the associated value cannot be interpreted as a boolean, or the backing store is inaccessible.
    
    Returns:
    the boolean value represented by the string associated with key in this preference node, or def if the associated value does not exist or cannot be interpreted as a boolean.

    IPreferences.get(String,String), IPreferences.putBoolean(String,boolean)
  - getByteArray
```
public byte[] getByteArray(String key,
                  byte[] def)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the byte array value represented by the string associated with the specified key in this preference node. Valid strings are Base64 encoded binary data, as defined in RFC 2045, Section 6.8, with one minor change: the string must consist solely of characters from the Base64 Alphabet; no newline characters or extraneous characters are permitted. This method is intended for use in conjunction with IPreferences.putByteArray(java.lang.String, byte[]).
    Returns the specified default if there is no value associated with the key, the backing store is inaccessible, or if the associated value is not a valid Base64 encoded byte array (as defined above).
    If the implementation supports stored defaults and such a default exists and is accessible, it is used in preference to the specified default, unless the stored default is not a valid Base64 encoded byte array (as defined above), in which case the specified default is used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getByteArray in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    key - key whose associated value is to be returned as a byte array.
    def - the value to be returned in the event that this preference node has no value associated with key or the associated value cannot be interpreted as a byte array, or the backing store is inaccessible.
    
    Returns:
    the byte array value represented by the string associated with key in this preference node, or def if the associated value does not exist or cannot be interpreted as a byte array.

    IPreferences.get(String,String), IPreferences.putByteArray(String,byte[])
  - getDouble
```
public double getDouble(String name)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the current value of the double-valued preference with the given key. Returns the default-default value (0.0) if there is no preference with the given key, or if the current value cannot be treated as a double.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getDouble in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    name - the key of the preference
    
    Returns:
    the double-valued preference

               double def)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the double value represented by the string associated with the specified key in this preference node. The string is converted to an integer as by Double.parseDouble(String). Returns the specified default if there is no value associated with the key, the backing store is inaccessible, or if Double.parseDouble(String) would throw a NumberFormatException if the associated value were passed. This method is intended for use in conjunction with IPreferences.putDouble(java.lang.String, double).
    If the implementation supports stored defaults and such a default exists, is accessible, and could be converted to a double with Double.parseDouble, this double is returned in preference to the specified default.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getDouble in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    key - key whose associated value is to be returned as a double.

    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the float value represented by the string associated with the specified key in this preference node. The string is converted to an integer as by Float.parseFloat(String). Returns the specified default if there is no value associated with the key, the backing store is inaccessible, or if Float.parseFloat(String) would throw a NumberFormatException if the associated value were passed. This method is intended for use in conjunction with IPreferences.putFloat(java.lang.String, float).
    If the implementation supports stored defaults and such a default exists, is accessible, and could be converted to a float with Float.parseFloat, this float is returned in preference to the specified default.

  - node
```
public IPreferences node(String pathName)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns the named preference node in the same tree as this node, creating it and any of its ancestors if they do not already exist. Accepts a relative or absolute path name. Relative path names (which do not begin with the slash character ('/')) are interpreted relative to this preference node.
    If the returned node did not exist prior to this call, this node and any ancestors that were created by this call are not guaranteed to become permanent until the flush method is called on the returned node (or one of its ancestors or descendants).
    
    Specified by:
    
    node in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    pathName - the path name of the preference node to return.
    
    Returns:

                   throws BackingStoreException
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Returns true if the named preference node exists in the same tree as this node. Relative path names (which do not begin with the slash character ('/')) are interpreted relative to this preference node.
    If this node (or an ancestor) has already been removed with the IPreferences.removeNode() method, it is legal to invoke this method, but only with the path name ""; the invocation will return false. Thus, the idiom p.nodeExists("") may be used to test whether p has been removed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    nodeExists in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    pathName - the path name of the node whose existence is to be checked.

```
public void put(String name,
       boolean value)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Sets the current value of the boolean-valued preference with the given key.
    
    Specified by:
    
    put in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    name - the key of the preference
    value - the new current value of the preference
  - put
```
public void put(String name,
       byte[] value)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Associates a string representing the specified byte array with the specified key in this preference node. The associated string is the Base64 encoding of the byte array, as defined in RFC 2045, Section 6.8, with one minor change: the string will consist solely of characters from the Base64 Alphabet; it will not contain any newline characters. Note that the maximum length of the byte array is limited to three quarters of MAX_VALUE_LENGTH so that the length of the Base64 encoded String does not exceed MAX_VALUE_LENGTH. This method is intended for use in conjunction with IPreferences.getByteArray(java.lang.String, byte[]).
    
    Specified by:
    
    put in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    name - key with which the string form of value is to be associated.
    value - value whose string form is to be associated with key.

  - remove
```
public void remove(String name)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Removes the value associated with the specified key in this preference node, if any.
    If this implementation supports stored defaults, and there is such a default for the specified preference, the stored default will be "exposed" by this call, in the sense that it will be returned by a succeeding call to get.
    
    Specified by:
    
    remove in interface IPreferences
    
    Parameters:
    name - key whose mapping is to be removed from the preference node.
  - removeModifiers
```
public void removeModifiers(String key)
```
  - removeNode
```
public void removeNode()
                throws BackingStoreException
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Removes this preference node and all of its descendants, invalidating any preferences contained in the removed nodes. Once a node has been removed, attempting any method other than IPreferences.name(), IPreferences.absolutePath() , IPreferences.flush() or nodeExists("") on the corresponding Preferences instance will fail with an IllegalStateException. (The methods defined on Object can still be invoked on a node after it has been removed; they will not throw IllegalStateException.)
    The removal is not guaranteed to be persistent until the flush method is called on this node (or an ancestor).
    If this implementation supports stored defaults, removing a node exposes any stored defaults at or below this node. Thus, a subsequent call to nodeExists on this node's path name may return true, and a subsequent call to node on this path name may may return a (different) Preferences instance representing a non-empty collection of preferences and/or children.
    
    Specified by:
    
    removeNode in interface IPreferences
    
    Throws:
    
    BackingStoreException - if this operation cannot be completed due to a failure in the backing store, or inability to communicate with it.

  - removeNotificationListener
```
public void removeNotificationListener(EventType type,
                              INotificationListener listener)
```
    Description copied from interface: INotificationSupport
    
    Remove listener from the collection of objects to be informed about events of type name.
    
    Specified by:
    
    removeNotificationListener in interface INotificationSupport
    
    Parameters:
    type - The event type we are no longer interested in.
    listener - The object registered for the event till now.
  - restrict
```
public IPreferences restrict(String scopeName)
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Create a new IPreferences object whose scopes include all scopes from the receiver before and including "scopeName".
    
    Specified by:
    
    restrict in interface IPreferences
    
    Returns:
    a new IPreferences object whose scopes include all scopes from the receiver before and including "scopeName".
  - setModifierString
```
public void setModifierString(String key,

```
    Specified by:
    
    setModifierString in interface IPreferences
  - sync
```
public void sync()
          throws BackingStoreException
```
    Description copied from interface: IPreferences
    
    Ensures that future reads from this preference node and its descendants reflect any changes that were committed to the persistent store (from any VM) prior to the sync invocation. As a side-effect, forces any changes in the contents of this preference node and its descendants to the persistent store, as if the flush method had been invoked on this node.
    
    Specified by:
    
    sync in interface IPreferences
    
    Throws:
    
    BackingStoreException - if this operation cannot be completed due to a failure in the backing store, or inability to communicate with it.
