>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug

> Currently in hadoop.common.conf.Configuration, when you specify a XML like this:
> {code}
> <configuration>
>   <property>
>     <name>conf.name</name>
>     <value></value>
>   </property>
> </configuration>
> {code}
> When you trying to get the conf.name, the returned value is null instead of an empty string.
> Test code for this,
> {code}
> import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
> import org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration;
> public class HadoopConfigurationEmptyTest {
>   public static void main(String[] args) {
>     Configuration conf = new Configuration(false);
>     ByteArrayInputStream bais =
>         new ByteArrayInputStream(("<configuration><property>"
>             + "<name>conf.name</name>" + "<value></value>"
>             + "</property></configuration>").getBytes());
>     conf.addResource(bais);
>     System.out.println(conf.get("conf.name"));
>   }
> }
> {code}
> Does this intentionally or a behavior should be fixed?
