/**
 * This configuration implements the XML properties format introduced in Java
 * 5.0, see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html.
 * An XML properties file looks like this:
 *
 *  * <?xml version="1.0"?>
 * <!DOCTYPE properties SYSTEM "http://java.sun.com/dtd/properties.dtd">
 * <properties>
 *   <comment>Description of the property list</comment>
 *   <entry key="key1">value1</entry>
 *   <entry key="key2">value2</entry>
 *   <entry key="key3">value3</entry>
 * </properties>
 * 
 *
 * The Java 5.0 runtime is not required to use this class. The default encoding
 * for this configuration format is UTF-8. Note that unlike
 * PropertiesConfiguration, XMLPropertiesConfiguration
 * does not support includes.
 *
 * Note:Configuration objects of this type can be read concurrently
 * by multiple threads. However if one of these threads modifies the object,
 * synchronization has to be performed manually.
