Emmanuel Bourg commented on CONFIGURATION-253: ---------------------------------------------- If the URL and the basepath are set on calling load(), then this is a bug since the source should not change. If we have to change the current behavior, I prefer that load() changes the source only if no source is already set. > FileConfiguration getFile(), getFileName(), getBasePath() are not always > consistent > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CONFIGURATION-253 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-253 > Project: Commons Configuration > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.3 > Reporter: Thomas Wabner > Fix For: 1.5 > > > Taken from the maillinglist: > > I have a properties configuration which is loaded without a problem. > > Later in my application I will access the file which is aligned to > > this configuration. > > > > > > > > final IFileConfiguration _productConf = > > _conf.getProductConfigurations().get(_productId); > > > > log.debug("product conf file " + _productConf.getFile()); > > > > log.debug("product conf filename " + _productConf.getFileName()); > > > > log.debug("product conf base path " + _productConf.getBasePath()); > > > > > > > > The methods _productConf.getFile() and _productConf.getFileName() > > returning null but the getBasePath() returns a path which is correct > > (like file:/C:/Projects/workspace/myProject/project.properties).

How did you load the configuration (this > determines, which internal fields are set)? > I would recommend to work with URLs, i.e. the method getURL(). A file-based > configuration's URL is always defined. > If you like, you can open a Jira ticket for this problem. > Thanks. > Oliver > The file is loaded in this way: > _productConf = new ProductConfiguration(); > _productConf.load(FileTools.getPathForList(_propductPathList).getPath()); > means the load method gets an String and not an File. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
