Joerg Schaible commented on CONFIGURATION-324:
----------------------------------------------
bq. Typically where I've seen this supported the continuation character has to
be the last character on the line. If \ is followed by a blank it will not be a
continuation.
Luke's problem is that his ini files don't have a blank before the continuation
character, but expect that a blank is automagically is added. However, I see
such a behaviour also critical as Oliver's example with the Windows path shows.

> INIConfiguration does not support line continuation. See
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file#Escapes for a description. Using
> INIConfiguration to read the following file:
> [section1]
> dotted.var1 = \
> foo
> var2 = doodle
> Produces the following contents:
> section1.dotted.var1= \
> section1.foo=
> I expected the following contents:
> section1.dotted.var1= foo
