Description

I hit a side effect of the https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-846 recently solved.

Assuming that we have a property file as configuration source like that

test.empty.property =

 

and that we will try to inject such property in a spring bean

@Value("${test.empty.property"})
private String emptyValue;

 we will get an exception like:  BeanDefinitionStore Invalid bean definition ... Could not resolve placeholder
