http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30838 XML configuration files should not have thier values converted to Properties format ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-08-25 16:56 ------- One guiding principle would be to let the file format's semantics guide the encoding/decoding rules therein. XML has it's own encoding rules (entities) that the user should be familiar with. Same thing for properties files. Mixing the rules is confusing and and counterintuitive. If someone was porting from log4j.properties into log4j.xml, they would naturally consider the encoding rules of XML and change their values accordingly. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
