Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-434:
--------------------------------------------
As some testing shows, the problem is already in the loading of the
configuration. After loading the test configuration the _Class Path_ property
has been stripped after the first semicolon.
Your assumption is correct that the semicolon is interpreted as comment
character, and the remaining part of the line is ignored. However, I think the
semicolon should only be treated as comment character if there is at least one
whitespace before it. I will try to fix this.
> In HierarchicalINIConfiguration, after saving a property by calling
> setProperty() and save() methods, the contents after semicolon disappeared in
> the saved file.

> Key: CONFIGURATION-434
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-434
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: File reloading
> Affects Versions: 1.6
> Environment: ini file in windows7 64bit
> Reporter: Jin Ho Jo
>
> Hi!
> I am developing an application using Commons Configuration API.
> And I got this problem.
> In the ini file like this:
> [Environment]
> Application Type=any
> Class Path=C:\Program Files\jar\manage.jar;C:\Program
> Files\jar\guiLauncher.jar;C:\Program Files\jar\appStart.jar;%USERPROFILE%;
> I changed the value of 'Application Type' from 'any' to 'gui' by using class
> HierarchicalINIConfiguration.
> The value was successfully modified, but instead the value of 'Class Path'
> was cut in the middle.
> It is reduced like this : 'Class Path=C:\Program Files\jar\manage.jar'
> In my opinion, the Configuration System regards the contents after ';' as
> comments, which disappeared from the file.
> Is this a kind of bug? Or is there a way to show all the contents after ';'
> properly?
> I appreciate if you give comments on this.
> Thank you.
