RafaƂ Figas commented on CONFIGURATION-641:
-------------------------------------------

My question is: what is by the book code, that should be used for loading (and 
then perform reading) configuration from input stream?
After some reading I came with something like this, what seems to be working 
well:

{code}
XMLConfiguration cfg = new 
BasicConfigurationBuilder<>(XMLConfiguration.class).configure(new 
Parameters().xml()).getConfiguration();
FileHandler fh = new FileHandler(cfg);
{code}

And then {{cfg}} should contain loaded configuration. Is this correct?

> I believe that testing for locator == null first will solve the problem as 
> the rest of the code in the method does not appear to use it.
