Emmanuel Bourg resolved CONFIGURATION-362. ------------------------------------------ Resolution: Fixed > XMLPropertyListConfiguration doesn't handle empty dictionary correctly > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CONFIGURATION-362 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-362 > Project: Commons Configuration > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.6 > Environment: Mac OS X 10.5.6 JDK 1.5 > Reporter: Kent McPhee > Assignee: Emmanuel Bourg > Fix For: 1.7 > > > Empty "dict" elements are not handled properly. During printing of a > configuration, configuration nodes that have no children and no value are > assumed to be "strings" (see XMLPropertyListConfiguration.java:printValue()'s > last "else" clause). <dict/> is parsed in such a way (see startElement() > and endElement() of that same file) that it ends up creating a configuration > node with no children and no value. Thus printing out a parsed property list > will print <string>null</string> everywhere an empty dictionary was in the > input. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
