[jira] [Commented] (CONFIGURATION-693) Conversion to File is missing

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-693?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16412761#comment-16412761 ] 

Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-693:
--------------------------------------------

Many thanks, this looks useful. In addition to File, we may also want to support conversions to Path objects, which is probably the preferred option on Java 1.7+.

Also, is there any chance you could provide a unit test? New features to be added require corresponding unit tests.

> PropertyConverter.java misses type conversion to File although a string could be easily converted to a File.
