Description

When I save a URL as a property value, the forward slashes are getting escaped.

ie:

foo = http:\/\/www.google.com\/

Example Code :

public static void main(String[] args)
{
try

{ PropertiesConfiguration config = new PropertiesConfiguration(); File newProps = new File("foo.properties"); config.setProperty("foo", "http://www.google.com/"); config.save(newProps); }

catch (Exception e){}

}
