[jira] Commented: (MNG-3242) It's not possible to get a property
with unescaped & sign for urls

Joel Marsden commented on MNG-3242:
-----------------------------------
My comment came out incorrect (due to the html escape!) - it is possible to work around using "& amp;" in the property (no space / quotes)

> I found no way to create a property with a not escaped ampersand (&-sign). This is needed for a MySQL jdbc-connection String with some connection variabled and should be filtered in a properties file during compile phase.
> It tried to escape it with & This leeds to following error: Project build error Cannot read project model from interpolating filter of serialized version.
> It is no option to use a double escaping with &amp;. Here I get a & in my connection url.
> I also tried to use a <[CDATA[ ... ]]> with the same problems. It's not possible to use & sign. And if I use & this escaped tag appears in my properties file after filtering.
