[Configuration] 1.1 to 1.4 upgrade - commas producing a list?
In our config files, we have LDAP URLs (among other values) that had
commas in them. "ldap://serverhost/DC=domain,DC=com". With config
1.1, this worked perfectly well; getString() returned the full value
exactly as in the XML file.
I ran into an issue that made no sense with config 1.4 - I only get up
to "DC=domain" - the ",DC=com" disappeared from getString().
When I did a dump of the config properties, I saw that the URI had
gotten converted to a list of 2 strings, and getString() silently only
returned the first one (as documented). I have yet to find any
documentation on this change nor on how to avoid it.
This is not what I want. I can create a list by creating multiple
values each in their own tags just fine without this trying to "help"
me. :) How can I restore the original behaviour and/or "escape" the
comma to keep it from generating a list and leave the string intact?
thanks,
Joe

But you can't use anymore the list fonctionnality ...
Another way is to escape your commas, like this :
"ldap://serverhost/DC=domain\,DC=com"

You have to tell the Configuration class what to use as the 'delimiter'.
With XMLConfiguration, I always have this in the startup of my class (so
that I have no delimiting):
XMLConfiguration.setDelimiter('~');
