Description

If you have hierarchy like this:

persons.person.name=1
persons.person.surName=2
persons.person.phoneNum=3

persons.person.name=4
persons.person.surName=5
persons.person.phoneNum=6

persons.person.name=7
persons.person.surName=8
persons.person.phoneNum=9

If I have a regular property configuration that loaded a file containing in the above. then I transform into HierarchicalConfiguration using: ConfigurationUtils.convertToHierarchical(configuration).

The tree is not right.

I can do this:

hierarchicalConfiguration.subset("persons").subset("person(0)").getKeys()

but this returned empty iterator:

hierarchicalConfiguration.subset("persons").subset("person(1)").getKeys()

Only the first person is available.
