public class Properties extends Hashtable
Properties class represents a persistent set of properties.
The Properties can be saved to a stream or loaded from a
stream. Each key and its corresponding value in the property list is a
string. A property list can contain another property list as its "defaults"; this second property list is searched if the property key is not found in the original property list.
Because Properties inherits from Hashtable, the
put and putAll methods can be applied to a Properties
object. Their use is strongly discouraged as they allow the caller to insert
entries whose keys or values are not Strings. The setProperty
method should be used instead. If the store or save
method is called on a "compromised" Properties object that
contains a non-String key or value, the call will fail.
When saving properties to a stream or loading them from a stream, the ISO 8859-1 character encoding is used. For characters that cannot be directly represented in this encoding, Unicode escapes are used; however, only a single 'u' character is allowed in an escape sequence. The native2ascii tool can be used to convert property files to and from other character encodings.

已过时。
This method does not throw an IOException if an I/O error
occurs while saving the property list. As of the Java 2 platform v1.2,
the preferred way to save a properties list is via the
store(OutputStream out,
String header) method. |

Calls the Hashtable method

table using the load method. |

Every property occupies one line of the input stream. Each line is
terminated by a line terminator (\n or \r or
\r\n). Lines from the input stream are processed until end of
file is reached on the input stream.
A line that contains only whitespace or whose first non-whitespace
character is an ASCII # or ! is ignored (thus,
# or ! indicate comment lines).
Every line other than a blank line or a comment line describes one
property to be added to the table (except that if a line ends with \, then
the following line, if it exists, is treated as a continuation line, as
described below). The key consists of all the characters in the line
starting with the first non-whitespace character and up to, but not
including, the first ASCII =, :, or whitespace
character. All of the key termination characters may be included in the
key by preceding them with a \. Any whitespace after the key is skipped;
if the first non-whitespace character after the key is = or
:, then it is ignored and any whitespace characters after it
are also skipped. All remaining characters on the line become part of the
associated element string. Within the element string, the ASCII escape
sequences \t, \n, \r, \\
, \", \', \ (a backslash
and a space), and \uxxxx are recognized and
converted to single characters. Moreover, if the last character on the
line is \, then the next line is treated as a continuation of
the current line; the \ and line terminator are simply
discarded, and any leading whitespace characters on the continuation line
are also discarded and are not part of the element string.
As an example, each of the following four lines specifies the key "Truth"
and the associated element value "Beauty":
Truth = Beauty
Truth:Beauty
Truth :Beauty
As another example, the following three lines specify a single
property:
fruits apple, banana, pear, \
cantaloupe, watermelon, \
kiwi, mango
The key is "fruits" and the associated element is:
"apple, banana, pear, cantaloupe, watermelon, kiwi, mango"Note that a space appears before each
\ so that a space will
appear after each comma in the final result; the \, line
terminator, and leading whitespace on the continuation line are merely
discarded and are not replaced by one or more other characters. As a third example, the line:
cheesesspecifies that the key is
"cheeses" and the associated
element is the empty string.inStream - the input stream.IOException - if an error occurred when reading from the input

Properties
table to the output stream in a format suitable for loading into a Properties
table using the load method. The stream is written using the
ISO 8859-1 character encoding.
Properties from the defaults table of this Properties table
(if any) are not written out by this method.
If the header argument is not null, then an ASCII #
character, the header string, and a line separator are first written to
the output stream. Thus, the header can serve as an
identifying comment.
Next, a comment line is always written, consisting of an ASCII #
character, the current date and time (as if produced by the toString
method of Date for the current time), and a line separator as
generated by the Writer.
Then every entry in this Properties table is written out, one
per line. For each entry the key string is written, then an ASCII =
, then the associated element string. Each character of the element string
is examined to see whether it should be rendered as an escape sequence.
The ASCII characters \, buttonviews, newline, and carriage return are
written as \\, \t, \n, and \r
, respectively. Characters less than \u0020 and
characters greater than \u007E are written as \u
xxxx for the appropriate hexadecimal value xxxx . Leading
space characters, but not embedded or trailing space characters, are
written with a preceding \. The key and value characters
#, ! , =, and : are
written with a preceding slash to ensure that they are properly loaded.
After the entries have been written, the output stream is flushed. The output stream remains open after this method returns.
