| API Documentation: | WriteProperties | 
|---|
Writes a Properties in a way that the results can be expected to be reproducible.
There are a number of differences compared to how properties are stored:
- no timestamp comment is generated at the beginning of the file
- the lines in the resulting files are separated by a pre-set separator (defaults to '\n') instead of the system default line separator
- the properties are sorted alphabetically
Like with Properties, Unicode characters are escaped when using the
default Latin-1 (ISO-8559-1) encoding.
| Property | Description | 
| comment | The optional comment to add at the beginning of the properties file. | 
| encoding | The encoding used to write the properties file. Defaults to ISO_8859_1. If set to anything different, unicode escaping is turned off. | 
| lineSeparator | The line separator to be used when creating the properties file. Defaults to `\n`. | 
| outputFile | The output file to write the properties to. | 
| properties | Returns an immutable view of properties to be written to the properties file. | 
| Method | Description | 
| properties(properties) | Adds multiple properties to be written to the properties file. | 
| property(name, value) | Adds a property to be written to the properties file. |
