David Felsenthal commented on CONFIGURATION-314:
------------------------------------------------
As well as a custom separator on write, a custom separator on read is needed.
I have to deal with legacy non-standard ini files , with # in the text fields, not quoted
or escaped.
I would have preferred to be able to override and extend INIConfiguration, but could not.
Instead, I too, had to copy and modify chunks of code.
> Allow custom separator characters when writing out PropertiesConfiguration

> Key: CONFIGURATION-314
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-314
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.5
> Reporter: Kenny MacLeod
> Fix For: 1.6
>
>
> While PropertiesConfiguration is tolerant of several different key/value separator characters
when reading a properties stream, it is hard-wired to use an "=" character when writing them
out again.
> Can we please have a way to customise this? Seems like a perfect use for the PropertiesConfigurationLayout.
> Sadly, because of the way that PropertiesWriter has been implemented, it's impossible
to extend and override this behaviour without copying large chunks of code.
