Fwd: Commons Configuration - XML Layout
Hi there,
I'm using commons configuration for managing my xml configuration. This also
involves me writing new properties to my xml file.
When I do config.addProperty() then save it, the new property that has been
added to my xml file does not indent correctly so as to make the xml more
readable.
Is there a way that I can control this with commons configuration or is
there a workaround that I can use?
Thanks in advance,
Brian

Ralph,
this was the answer from Oliver Heger:
http://www.mail-archive.com/user@commons.apache.org/msg01295.html
My interpretation of this was that it isn't considered a bug or missing
feature, so I thought it wouldn't be implemented anyway.
Of course, If you plan to change that, I can create an issue for this.
christian!

Hi Brian,
i asked the same some time ago and got the answer that pretty print isn't
supported by commons-configuration. Here is how I do it (quick&easy, you
need jdom):
org.jdom.Document confDoc = *new* org.jdom.input.DOMBuilder().build(*
masterconfig*.getDocument());
*if* (confDoc != *null*) {
OutputStream output = *new* FileOutputStream(*masterconfig*.getFile());
XMLOutputter outputter = *new* XMLOutputter();
outputter.output(confDoc, output);
} *else* {
*masterconfig*.save();
}
masterconfig is the XMLConfiguration object.
hth,
best regards,
christian!
