public class RegionConfig
extends java.lang.Object
implements Identifiable<java.lang.String>, java.io.Serializable

A "region" element describes a region (and its entries) in Geode distributed cache. It may be used to create a new region or may be used to add new entries to an existing region. Note that the "name" attribute specifies the simple name of the region; it cannot contain a "/". If "refid" is set then it defines the default region attributes to use for this region. A nested "region-attributes" element can override these defaults. If the nested "region-attributes" element has its own "refid" then it will cause the "refid" on the region to be ignored. "refid" can be set to the name of a RegionShortcut or a ClientRegionShortcut (see the javadocs of those enum classes for their names).
