[jira] Commented: (CONFIGURATION-247) recognize changes in included
Propertiefiles
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-247?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12462549 ]
Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-247:
--------------------------------------------
Implementing this feature is problematic because of the way include files in PropertiesConfiguration are currently handled: The properties found in included files are simply added to the current configuration object, and the connection to the source files is lost. One consequence of this is that if you save such a PropertiesConfiguration, the properties loaded from included files will be stored in the main properties file (rather than being written back to the original files).
Support for include files is specific to PropertiesConfiguration and no general feature of (file-based) Configuration classes. With DefaultConfigurationBuilder and ConfigurationFactory Commons Configuration provides a more generic means of combining properties from different sources. The former allows defining reloading strategies for configurations that are to be combined together. Using this class you should be able to solve your problem.
So I tend to close this issue as WON'T FIX unless you can give good reasons why you cannot use this alternative.

> Properties-Files included in other properties-Files should be recognized by the event-listener / reloading-strategie set on the main properties-File. This is necessary in case of modifications in these included Files.
> for instance:
> main.properties
> include=sample.properties
> ....
> sample.properties
> mail.address=info@localhost
> ...
> when i change the value of mail.address i definitly need a restart of my application.
