Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen commented on CONFIGURATION-285:
-------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for adding this extension.
I still believe that invalid subconfigurations should be treated differently
from optional, non-existant subconfigurations regardless of the invalidation
cause, and that the silent ignoring should be a switch that needs to be set,
similarly to the config-optional attribute. I.e. if an optional
subconfiguration is invalid, a configuration exception should be thrown.
I'd prefer not to use CVS-snapshots in production code - do you have a rough
estimate of when 1.5 will be released?

> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen
> Assignee: Oliver Heger
> Fix For: 1.5
>
>
> I'm trying to build a configuration system to be shared between our Java
> applications. I therefore want to have optional configurations included from
> the main configuration file read by DefaultConfigurationBuilder
> <configuration fileName="local-configuration.xml" config-optional="true" />
> I have found that if the sub-configuration file is invalid the error is
> silently ignored. The same without config-options="true" results in a
> ConfigurationException to be thrown (which wraps a
> ConfigurationRuntimeException which wraps the ConfigurationException which
> wraps the SAXException).
> I believe that the behaviour is incorrect. The sub-configuration file should
> be skipped if not found, but any errors found when parsing the existing file
> should be logged.
