>                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-7029
>             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: common
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.0.M1
>         Environment: Linux - Fedora 13, JDK 1.6.0_20, Eclipse Helios
>            Reporter: Jeremy Nix
>            Assignee: Viacheslav Kabanovich

> I have properties defined in a property file in the following fashion:
> test.ontology=\\\\a\\b\\c\\
> test.name=My Test Ontology
> test2.ontology=\\\\a\\b\\c\\d\\
> test2.name=My Test Ontology #2
> If I copy and past this into a properties file, save, close and reopen, i get
> the following properties file definition:
> test.ontology=\\\\a\\b\\c\\
> test2.ontology=\\\\a\\b\\c\\d\\
> Now, I haven't been able to find documentation in the Java API's that says you
> can't have a property end with an escaped backslash, so I assume that I'm not
> defining these incorrectly.  And, for those who would say use slashes, not
> backslashes, these are conceptual paths, not file paths, and cannot be changed.
> Is this a bug, or am I defining the entries incorrectly? (Confirmed by Eclipse team
> that file is defined correctly, which means this is a bug)
> Initially reported against Eclipse Properties File Editor: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=324418
