27  /**
28   * <p>
29   * A specialized implementation of {@code ListDelimiterHandler} which simulates the list delimiter handling as it was
30   * used by {@code PropertiesConfiguration} in Commons Configuration 1.x.
31   * </p>
32   * <p>
33   * This class mainly exists for compatibility reasons. It is intended to be used by applications which have to deal with
34   * properties files created by an older version of this library.
35   * </p>
36   * <p>
37   * In the 1.x series of Commons Configuration list handling was not fully consistent. The escaping of property values
38   * was done in a different way if they contained a list delimiter or not. From version 2.0 on, escaping is more
39   * stringent which might cause slightly different results when parsing properties files created by or for Configuration
40   * 1.x. If you encounter such problems, you can switch to this {@code ListDelimiterHandler} implementation rather than
41   * the default one. In other cases, this class should not be used!
42   * </p>
43   * <p>
44   * Implementation note: An instance of this class can safely be shared between multiple {@code Configuration} instances.
45   * </p>
