             Summary: PropertyConfiguration's handling of includes depends on 
the existence of a base path
                 Key: CONFIGURATION-534
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-534
             Project: Commons Configuration
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.9
            Reporter: Oliver Heger


{{PropertiesConfiguration}} has a property which controls whether include files 
are allowed. This property does not have a set method, it is set to *true* 
automatically if a base path is set. There may be scenarios in which it makes 
sense to support include files anyway, e.g. if they are specified as fully 
qualified file names or URIs or can be retrieved by the standard lookup 
mechanism.

So the set method should be public, and it makes sense to set this property to 
*true* per default. If a file contains an _include_ property, the files it 
refers to should propably be loaded.

Also the get method for the property which controls file inclusion does not 
conform to the Java Beans specification; returning a *boolean*, it should start 
with the prefix _is_.
