             Summary: clearPropertyDirect() in AbstractConfiguration should be 
abstract
                 Key: CONFIGURATION-527
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-527
             Project: Commons Configuration
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build
    Affects Versions: 1.9
            Reporter: Matthias Richter
            Priority: Minor


The method clearPropertyDirect() in AbstractConfiguration has an empty 
implementation body. It is documented as "should be overwritten" but is not 
marked abstract.
It should be abstract to prevent errors when subclassing AbstractConfiguration 
and using the clear() method where (indirectly) clearPropertyDirect() is being 
called.
See addPropertyDirect() for comparison, which is abstract.
