public Class JavaPropsSchema

Specifies index number used when writing the first array entry (which in Java has index of 0). After this initial value, additional elements will have consecutive values, incremented by 1. Note that this setting has no effect on reading: input indexes are only used for sorting values, and their exact values have no meaning.

Default value is 1.

Optional header to prepend before any other output: typically a comment section or so. Note that contents here are NOT modified in any way, meaning that any comment indicators (leading '#' or '!') and linefeeds MUST be specified by caller.

Default start marker for index access, if any; empty String may be used to indicate no marker-based index detection should be made.

Default value of "[" is usually combined with end marker of "]" to allow C/Java-style bracket notation, like "settings.path[1]".

String added between key and value; needs to include the "equals character" (either '=' or ':', both allowed by Java Properties specification), may also include white before and/or after "equals character". Default value is a single '=' character with no white spaces around

String added after value, including at least one linefeed. Default value is the 'Unix linefeed'.

String prepended before key value, as possible indentation

Whether 'simple' index-notation is supported for path segments or not: simple meaning that if a path segment is a textual representation of a non-negative integer value with length of 9 or less (that is, up to but no including one billion), it will be considered index, not property name.

Note that this settings does NOT control whether "start/end marker" indicated indexes are enabled or not; those depend on _indexMarker.

Default value is true, "plain" index segments are supported.

Default path separator to use for hierarchic paths, if any; empty String may be used to indicate that no hierarchy should be inferred using a simple separator (although index markers may still be used, if defined).

Default escape character to use for single character path separators , enabling the pathSeparator to be included in a segment. Note that this is only used if the path separator is a single character. The default value is NULL ('\0') which effectively disables escape processing. The escape character is only used for escaping either the pathSeparator character or a sequence of escape characters immediately prior to the pathSeparator. i.e., if the pathSeparator is "." and the escape char is '#' then "a#.b" produces a segment called "a.b", but "a##.b" produces a segment called "a#" with a child called "b" and "a###.b" produces a segment called "a#.b". Finally, "a#b" produces a segment called "a#b" - the escape processing is only used immediately prior to the path separator. Any escape character may be used. Backslash ('\\') is the most obvious candidate but be aware that the JDK Properties loader has its own rules for escape processing (documented in the Javadoc for Properties.load ) that will remove ALL duplicated backslash characters (and also carry out other escape handling) before the JavaPropsMapper gets to see them.

Optional prefix to strip and append to key names. Useful when subset of properties need to be processed.

Since

2.10

Since splitter instances are slightly costly to build in some cases, we will lazily instantiate and cache them.

Whether array-element paths are written using start/end markers (see _indexMarker or "simple" index number: if set to true AND markers are specified as non-empty Strings, will use sequence of
