Another solution is to simply use:

subconfig = config.subset("test.");

No:

config:
test.abc
testing.xyz

subconfig = config.subset("test");

subconfig:
bc

I am quite sure, this is not what you want. But you can enhance the UnitTest

Thanks! I have this applied and all the unit tests past. First time I have
seen the Transformer class used, and wow.. very cool usage! Anonymous Inner
class! If you can give it a test?

Hi Eric,

it seems you've mixed up this bug report with something else. Neither seems your comment apply
to the patch nor is the reported bug fixed in CVS (did you mean 26994 ?). The new
SubsetConfiguration of Emmanual Bourgh
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.commons.devel/41897) would have made this patch
additionally obsolete as already stated in that mail.

While I saw, that you stated, that you've applied Emmanuels patch also
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.commons.devel/42228), I cannot see anything in
CVS. Therefore I've reopened this bug again.

Regards,
Jörg

Eric,

I've attached a new patch for the current code of the test case just covering
the original bug. Test runs fine though, so it is save to apply the patch.

Regards,
Jörg

Okay, patch applied.. I'm going to mark it as closed now.. If something
doesn't look right, we can reopen it...
