> [FileHandlerReloadingDetector|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-configuration/apidocs/src-html/org/apache/commons/configuration2/reloading/FileHandlerReloadingDetector.html] declares the following method:
>
> {code:java}
> 150 @Override
> 151 public boolean isReloadingRequired()
> 152 {
> 153 long now = System.currentTimeMillis();
> 154 if (now >= lastChecked + getRefreshDelay())
> 155 {
> 156 lastChecked = now;
> 157
> 158 long modified = getLastModificationDate();
> 159 if (modified > 0)
> 160 {
> 161 if (lastModified == 0)
> 162 {
> 163 // initialization
> 164 updateLastModified(modified);
> 165 }
> 166 else
> 167 {
> 168 if (modified != lastModified)
> 169 {
> 170 return true;
> 171 }
> 172 }
> 173 }
> 174 }
> 175
> 176 return false;
> 177 }
> {code}
>
> During initialization of FileHandlerReloadingDetector, lastModified is never instantiated, so the first time isReloadingRequired() is invoked lastModified will be 0.
>
> This results in two issues:
>
> Test #1
> * Scenario Steps
> ## Initialize ReloadingFileBasedConfigurationBuilder without invoking builder.getConfiguration()
> ## Wait longer than refreshDelay
> ## Invoke builder.getReloadingController().checkForReloading(null) to notify the FileHandlerReloadingDetector to check for reload
> ## Invoke bulider.getConfiguration()
> ## Update the properties file
> ## Wait longer than refreshDelay
> ## Invoke builder.getReloadingController().checkForReloading(null) to notify the FileHandlerReloadingDetector to check for reload
> ## Invoke bulider.getConfiguration()
> * Result - the Configuration does not have the updated value.
>
> Test #2
> * Scenario Steps
> ## Initialize ReloadingFileBasedConfigurationBuilder without invoking builder.getConfiguration()
> ## Invoke bulider.getConfiguration()
> ## Update the properties file
> ## Wait longer than refreshDelay
> ## Invoke builder.getReloadingController().checkForReloading(null) to notify the FileHandlerReloadingDetector to check for reload
> ## Invoke bulider.getConfiguration()
> ## Update the properties file
> ## Wait longer than refreshDelay
> ## Invoke builder.getReloadingController().checkForReloading(null) to notify the FileHandlerReloadingDetector to check for reload
> ## Invoke bulider.getConfiguration()
> * Result - For the first two invocations, the Configuration is not updated. One the third invocation of builder.getConfiguration() the property is updated to the new value.
>
> As potential solution, the constructor of FileHandlerReloadingDetector should either call isReloadingRequired() or updateLastModified(getLastModificationDate()) to initialize the lastModified instance variable to the file current lastModified value.
