I do agree that depending upon whitespace transferred through properties files sounds like one would be asking for trouble, having the reading code dictate the no-space policy seems worse.

Do we really want to trim properties at all?? I think not.
You are kidding. Are you? You must. You definitely don't want to deal with
the resulting problem of this two "differing" properties.
resource.loader = file resource.loader = file
(well, ok, you are warned now and will always watch out, I guess;-)
(and ok, OE *is* trimming the trailing space of the second property line -
d'oh)
I want five spaces if I type this: "aproperty= FIVE_SPACES_BEFORE_AND_AFTER "
This won't work because the leading spaces are trimmed anyway.
And if I don't want them, I'd type this: "aproperty=NO_SPACES_BEFORE_AND_AFTER"
Otherwise, somebody will write in soon saying "Why are Velocity Properties chomping my space chars at the end of a line?????" :-)
Ok, you are kidding... ,-)
Bye, Thilo.
