Ho-jin Lee commented on CONFIGURATION-427:
------------------------------------------

Of course, it's my pleasure.
My suggestion code cannot recognize String[]. But it can recognize List.

------------- Test code ---------------
package mytest;

import java.io.StringWriter;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import org.apache.commons.configuration.ConfigurationException;
import org.apache.commons.configuration.plist.XMLPropertyListConfiguration;

class test {
        public static void main(String[] args) throws ConfigurationException {
                XMLPropertyListConfiguration config = new 
XMLPropertyListConfiguration();
                List<String> strings = new ArrayList<String>();
                strings.add("element1");
                strings.add("element2");
                strings.add("element3");
                config.addProperty("arrayTest", strings);
                
                StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
                try {
                        config.save(writer);
                } catch (ConfigurationException e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }
                System.out.println(writer.toString());
        }
}

--------- Result ----------
