  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getValues

          public List getValues(Object name)

      Get multiple values. Single valued entries are converted to singleton lists.
      Parameters:
        `name` - The entry key.
      Returns:
        Unmodifieable List of values.

    - #### getValue

          public Object getValue(Object name,
                        int i)

      Get a value from a multiple value. If the value is not a multivalue, then index 0 retrieves the value or null.
      Parameters:
        `name` - The entry key.
        `i` - Index of element to get.
      Returns:
        Unmodifieable List of values.

    - #### getString

          public String getString(Object name)

      Get value as String. Single valued items are converted to a String with the toString() Object method. Multi valued entries are converted to a comma separated List. No quoting of commas within values is performed.
      Parameters:
        `name` - The entry key.
      Returns:
        String value.
