Jim Prantzalos updated CONFIGURATION-481:
-----------------------------------------

    Description: 
With Commons Configuration 1.6, I was able to declare a variable in a 
properties file, and then reference it in a XML file using the $\{myvar\} 
syntax.

For example:

global.properties:
{noformat}myvar=abc{noformat}

test.xml:
{code:xml}
<products>
  <product name="abc">
    <desc>${myvar}-product</desc>
  </product>
</products>
{code}

config.xml:
{code:xml}
<properties fileName="global.properties"/>
<xml fileName="test.xml" config-name="test">
  <expressionEngine 
config-class="org.apache.commons.configuration.tree.xpath.XPathExpressionEngine"/>
</xml>
{code}

When I try to retrieve the value, like so:

{code}combinedConfig.getConfiguration("test").configurationAt("products/product[@name='abc']",
 true).getString("desc"){code}

I get "$\{myvar\}-product" instead of "abc-product".

This was working in Commons Configuration 1.6, but seems to be broken in 1.7 
and 1.8.
