Hello everybody,

I have a question regarding the Commons Configuration. Let's assume I
have a configuration file "myprops.properties" that looks like this:

-------------------------
# written by PropertiesConfiguration
# Mon Aug 07 08:29:12 CEST 2006

group1.entry1 = value1
group1.entry2 = value2
group1.entry3 = value3
-------------------------

Now I would like to simply delete an entry. For instance, I would like
to remove the whole line "group1.entry2 = value2" from my properties
file. How do I do this?

Using

PropertiesConfiguration config = new PropertiesConfiguration("myprops.properties");
  config.clearProperty("group1.entry2 = value2");
  config.save();

doesn't work.
Thanks for your help!

Bye

You only need to pass in the key of the property you want to delete to clearProperty(), so the line in question should run:

config.clearProperty("group1.entry2");
