                try {
                        XMLConfiguration config = new XMLConfiguration();
                        // works
                        config.setProperty("test.property[@attribute]", 
"value");
                        config.setExpressionEngine(new XPathExpressionEngine());
                        // does not work
                        config.setProperty("property/@attribute2", "value2");
                        config.save(System.out);
                } catch (ConfigurationException e) {
                        // @FIXME Traitement d'exception par defaut
