Oliver Heger updated CONFIGURATION-26: -------------------------------------- Fix Version/s: 2.0 Setting fix version to the next major release because this will probably involve an API change. > [configuration] Consider returning a concatenation of the list properties > with getString() > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CONFIGURATION-26 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-26 > Project: Commons Configuration > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: Operating System: All > Platform: All > Reporter: Ittay Dror > Fix For: 2.0 > > > in AbstractConfiguration.resolveContainerStore (javadoc): > * Returns an object from the store described by the key. If the value is a > * List object, replace it with the first object in the list. > but what if getProperty returns a List because this is the type of the > property? > this code will silently grab the first elemen. I don't understand why. > Probably > the reason is that some class extending AbstractConfiguration returns List > for > properties. In this case I think the better approach is to have that class > return the first element instead, rather than returning the List and letting > AbstractConfiguration (which is used by many other implementations, including > outside of the configuration package) handle it -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
