Sets up the configuration registry. This method will include the specified file, which should specify a class definition for the JConfig class with the appropriate default values for the system configuration parameters. A registry will then be created and the configuration values will be loaded into the registry.

void setConfiguration ( $file, $type )

The Joomla! core calls this method as follows:

$mainframe->setConfiguration(JPATH_CONFIGURATION . DS . 'configuration.php');

JPATH_CONFIGURATION contains the path to the directory that contains the configuration file. Once the configuration registry has been created, the configuration values can then be retrieved using the JApplication::getCfg method.
