Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-600:
--------------------------------------------

I assume you are using {{DefaultConfigurationBuilder}} for loading the file, do 
you? This class has a method for setting a base path. The base path is taken 
into account when resolving child configuration files.

You can set the base path to a URL (in string form) obtained via 
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(). I am not sure whether this 
works with URLs pointing to elements in a jar file though, but you should give 
it a try.

>                 Key: CONFIGURATION-600
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-600
>             Project: Commons Configuration
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.8
>            Reporter: John Henriksson
>
> When using the commons configuration inside a WAR loading a XML file works 
> fine when done like this:
> InputStream is = 
> this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("/conf/main.xml");
> builder.load(is);
> The problem is when the main.xml reference other xml files:
> configuration>
>     <xml fileName="child1.xml"/>
> </configuration>
> If the structure of the war is:
> /
> /classes
> /conf/child1.xml
> /conf/main.xml
> There seems to be no way to pick up child1.xml from main.xml when loading 
> main.xml as a stream.
