> Hi,
> I'm using a standard Java properties file, containing this :
> my.label = Year {0,date,yyyy}
> The problem I encountered is that this pattern (*) is truncated while loading it with Apache Commons Configuration:
> (service code)
>        // confPath being the path to an .xml file containing all the .properties file paths
>        ConfigurationFactory configurationFactory = new ConfigurationFactory(confPath);
>        configurationFactory.setBasePath(getApplicationRoot());
>        configuration = configurationFactory.getConfiguration();
> (client code)
>         String labelPattern = configuration.getString("my.label");
> I have labelPattern = Year {0
> which ended in the MessageFormat with a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unmatched braces in the pattern.
> So I have to escape the commas in my pattern with a single backslash (here I had to enter two, because one backslash isn't displayed):
> my.label = Year {0\\,date\\,yyyy}
> Don't understand why..?!
> (*) see http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/text/MessageFormat.html
