Patrick Buchheit closed CONFIGURATION-811.
------------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.7
Resolution: Not A Problem
The issue was caused by assigning the DefaultDelimiterHandler to the wrong
configuration. It was user error, not a bug.
> ConfigurationConverter Adding Escape Character to Delimited String
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CONFIGURATION-811
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-811
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Interpolation
> Affects Versions: 2.7
> Environment: Ubuntu 18.04
> Jdk 1.8
> Reporter: Patrick Buchheit
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.7

>
> I'm working on a project that needs to define and load some properties as
> delimited lists of strings. I noticed that when I went to load my properties
> from the configuration, the resulting string has escape characters added
> before each delimiter. So if my property file has the line
> *[email protected]@[[email protected]|mailto:[email protected]]*
>
> then the result of looking up the property will be
> *[email protected]/-foo@[tura.com/[email protected]|mailto:[email protected]]*
>
> I'm not sure whether this behaviour is intentional or a bug, but it causes
> problems when trying to use the 'split()' method of
> AbstractListDelimiterHandler. The escape character causes the delimiter to be
> treated as a literal, so the string does not get split into parts. Below is a
> test case demonstrating the behaviour I'm seeing.
>
>
> {code:java}
> @Test
> public void testPropertyParsingWithEscape() throws IOException,
> ConfigurationException
> {
> File tmpOutput = File.createTempFile("test", ".properties");
> Writer out = new FileWriter(tmpOutput);
> out.write("[email protected][email protected][email protected]");
> out.append("\[email protected]\\[email protected]");
> out.append("\[email protected]\\\\[email protected]");
> out.close();
>
> Configurations configurations = new Configurations();
> CompositeConfiguration cc = new CompositeConfiguration();
> ListDelimiterHandler handler = new DefaultListDelimiterHandler('-');
> cc.setListDelimiterHandler(handler);
>
> cc.addConfiguration(configurations.properties(tmpOutput));
>
> Configuration config = cc;
> final Properties props = ConfigurationConverter.getProperties(config);
>
> String navTo = (String) props.get("mail.to.nav");
> assertNotNull(navTo);
> String errorTo = (String) props.get("mail.to.error");
> assertNotNull(errorTo);
> String to = (String) props.get("mail.to");
> assertNotNull(to);
>
> List<String> lst1 = (List<String>) handler.split(navTo, true);
> List<String> lst2 = (List<String>) handler.split(errorTo, true);
> List<String> lst3 = (List<String>) handler.split(to, true);
> assertThat(lst1, contains(
> Arrays.asList("[email protected]","[email protected]","[email protected]")) );
> assertThat(lst2, contains(
> Arrays.asList("[email protected]","[email protected]")) );
> assertThat(lst3, contains(
> Arrays.asList("[email protected]","[email protected]")) );
