http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36784 Summary: ConfigurationConverter.getProperties() and interpolate behaviour inconsequent with getList() Product: Commons Version: 1.1 Final Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Configuration AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, when converting a Configuration object into a Properties object no variable interpolation takes place. E.g. you have a PropertiesConfiguration with: foo=bar interpolated=${foo} If you dump the Properties object or use .getProperty("interpolated") you will get "${foo}" instead of "bar". If you convert the Configuration one would expect the real/interpolated values for use with a legacy method (or just any JDK method that just takes Properties). But as the converter uses Configuration.getList(key) that doesn't interpolate (why does getList not interpolate?) this doesn't happen. Probably one could just use getStringArray() instead as this method does interpolate. Is there a reason for AbstractConfiguration.getStringArray() working differently compared to getList() with regard to variable interpolation? At least a Javadoc note would be good, or did one just forget to call "interpolate" in both? Moreover it would be logical if getProperties() & related methods would allow to specify a separator char as ", " is nice to print but is more difficult to parse than just ",". Actually the AbstractConfiguration.setDelimiter() functionality would make it reasonable to allow the user to modify the default also when converting vice versa. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
