Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-327:
--------------------------------------------
Making INIConfiguration a true hierarchical configuration is certainly the
future-proof solution because in the next major release of Commons
Configuration all configuration classes are intended to be hierarchical. This
will also address some of the other tickets created for INIConfiguration. I
will try to create such a hierarchical implementation.
Unfortunately changing the inheritance structure from AbstractFileConfiguration
to AbstractHierarchicalFileConfiguration is a binary incompatible change. So I
will have to create a new class, say HierarchicalINIConfiguration. We can then
deprecate the original INIConfiguration.

>
> 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".
