Description	`Configuration` represents a configuration object. It contains a name, description and a set of properties that describe a configuration data set. Like all `OsidObjects`, `Configuration` is managed by its `OsidSessions` and may not be accessed by concurrent processing threads.
Method	isRegistry
Description	Tests if this configuration is a parameter registry. A parameter registry contains parameter definitions with no values.
Return	`boolean`		`true` if this is a registry, `false` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getConfigurationRecord
Description	Gets the configuration record corresponding to the given `Configuration` record `Type`. This method is used to retrieve an object implementing the requested record. The `configurationRecordType` may be the `Type` returned in `getRecordTypes()` or any of its parents in a `Type` hierarchy where `hasRecordType(configurationRecordType)` is `true`.
Parameters	`osid.type.Type`	`configurationRecordType`	the type of configuration record to retrieve
Return	`osid.configuration.records.ConfigurationRecord`		the configuration record
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`configurationRecordType` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	UNSUPPORTED		`hasRecordType(configurationRecordType)` is `false`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
