Charles Honton commented on CONFIGURATION-327:
----------------------------------------------
Alternatively, since the ini format does not allow brackets in a key name,
include brackets in the section part of the key name. The example above would
contain:
default = ok
dotted.var1 = default
[section1].dotted.var1 = foo
[section1].var2 = doodle
This would break prior clients expecting a particular name aliasing. This
would not break clients properly appending the section name to the key name to
get the property.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-327
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation, Format
> Affects Versions: 1.5
> Reporter: Charles Honton
>
> After reading the following file with INIConfiguration
> default = ok
> dotted.var1 = default
> [section1]
> dotted.var1 = foo
> var2 = doodle
> The set of sections returned by INIConfiguration.getSections() includes
> "dotted" and "section1". I did not expect a section "dotted".
