Gary D. Gregory resolved CONFIGURATION-769.
-------------------------------------------
    Fix Version/s: 2.8
       Resolution: Fixed

This fix requires you to disable caching, you will need to update code (from 
the test), from, for example:
{code}
        final FileBasedConfigurationBuilder<PropertiesConfiguration> builder = 
            new FileBasedConfigurationBuilder<>(PropertiesConfiguration.class)
                .configure(new FileBasedBuilderParametersImpl()
                .setURL(url));
{code}
to:
{code}
        final FileBasedConfigurationBuilder<PropertiesConfiguration> builder = 
            new FileBasedConfigurationBuilder<>(PropertiesConfiguration.class)
                .configure(new FileBasedBuilderParametersImpl()
                .setURL(url, new URLConnectionOptions().setUseCaches(false)));
{code}
Note the use of 
{{setURL(URL, URLConnectionOptions)}} 
instead of 
{{setURL(URL)}}

> I am using latest Apache commons configuration 2 version 2.6 and when trying 
> to invoke addProperty it replaces < > with &lt &gt.
> example :
> cfg.addProperty("data.array(0).var(0)",  "<var name=myds1>" );
> cfg.write(new FileWriter(this.XmlFile));
> Here cfg is XMLConfiguration Object
> The resulting xml is :
>  {{            <var>&lt;var name=myds1&gt;</var>}}
> Expected is :
>  {{            "<var name=myds1>"}}
>
