Re: [Configuration] save() not working?

[Jamie Guillemette]

The display is :
file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/JMGuillemette/My%20Documents/Workspace/Config/ConfigDemo/bin/sample.properties
jamie
The file it self is not in a jar.. but it might be at distribution time... 
hence why i was perfering to use URL for referencing the file.

Where is located the sample.properties file ? Inside a JAR ? Could you 
show us the URL displayed by System.out.println(url) ?

In follow up to my message of this morning here is some sample code.
[code]
/*
* Created on Apr 6, 2005

package com.wirednorth.configdemo;
import java.net.URL;
import org.apache.commons.configuration.Configuration;
import org.apache.commons.configuration.ConfigurationException;
import org.apache.commons.configuration.PropertiesConfiguration;
/**
* @author JMGuillemette
*/
public class ConfigDemo {
public ConfigDemo(){
}
public void runDemo()throws ConfigurationException{
 URL url = this.getClass().getResource("/sample.properties");
 System.out.println(url);
 PropertiesConfiguration config = new PropertiesConfiguration(url);
 String firstName = config.getString("name.first");
 System.out.println(firstName);
 config.setProperty("name.first","newName");
 config.save();
}
public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception{
 ConfigDemo demo = new ConfigDemo();
 demo.runDemo();
}

}
[/code]
the properties files it self looks like this...
[file]
name.first = jamie
name.last = guillemette
city = london
prov = ontario
[/file]
if you run this code.. you would expect the first run through to product 
"jamie"on the console.. and the next one to produce "newName"... instead 
what i get is "jamie" every time.

Thanks again for all you help everyone :)
