Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-300:
--------------------------------------------
The problem does not seem to be the fileFromURL() method, but the URL returned
by File.toURL() is already incorrect because the "#" character should have been
escaped. We have hit a bug in the JDK here:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4273532
I tend to close this issue as WONT FIX because this is a problem of the JDK
with no really satisfying workaround (at least according to the discussion in
the ticket mentioned above) . In the future we will probably implement a
different mechanism for specifying configuration files based on so-called
locators (see CONFIGURATION-153). With this approach the problem can be solved.
WDYT?
