[jira] [Commented] (CONFIGURATION-427) XMLPropertyListConfiguration cannot save arrays in the correct plist form

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-427?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14061345#comment-14061345 ] 

Zhanglei Wang commented on CONFIGURATION-427:
---------------------------------------------

I think this is a major bug on an important feature (adding <array> nodes to a plist file). How come it has been pending for so many year? Is XMLPropertyListConfiguration abandoned or not?
