The CobiGen Property Plug-in currently only provides different merge mechanisms for documents written in Java property syntax.
There are two merge strategies for Java properties, which can be configured in the templates.xml:
-
Merge strategy
propertymerge
(merges two properties documents and keeps the existing properties on conflicts) -
Merge strategy
propertymerge_override
(merges two properties documents and overrides the existing properties on conflicts)
Both documents (base and patch) will be parsed using the Java 7 API and will be compared according their keys. Conflicts will occur if a key in the patch already exists in the base document.
