[Re: [configuration] specify a regular expression as string property]

[T E Schmitz]

I realize that the question below was rather too specific for anyone to 
know the answer off-hand.

But does anyone know what determines whether a property is interpreted 
as String, Float, Integer or ArrayList?

Regards,

Hello,

I would like to specify a regular expression as a string property.
Example:
first.name.pattern=.{0,30}
or alternatively in an xml configuration file:
<pattern>.{0,30}</pattern>
Unfortunately this expression is interpreted as ArrayList. Is there any
way to escape it so that it will be interpreted as a String?
Any help is very much appreciated.
