Spring Framework 6.2 introduced support for an escape character for
property placeholders (by default '\'). However, as of Spring Framework
6.2.6, there was no way to either escape the escape character or disable
escape character support.
For example, given a `username` property configured with the value of
`Jane.Smith` and a `DOMAIN\${username}` configuration string, property
placeholder replacement used to result in `DOMAIN\Jane.Smith` prior to
6.2 but now results in `DOMAIN${username}`. Similarly, an attempt to
escape the escape character via `DOMAIN\\${username}` results in
`DOMAIN\${username}`.
In theory, one should be able to disable use of an escape character
altogether, and that is currently possible by invoking
setEscapeCharacter(null) on AbstractPropertyResolver and
PlaceholderConfigurerSupport (the superclass of
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer).
However, in reality, there are two hurdles.
- As of 6.2.6, an invocation of setEscapeCharacter(null) on a
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer applied to its internal
top-level PropertySourcesPropertyResolver but not to any nested
PropertySourcesPropertyResolver, which means that the `null` escape
character could not be effectively applied.
- Users may not have an easy way to explicitly set the escape character
to `null` for a PropertyResolver or
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer. For example, Spring Boot
auto-configures a PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer with the
default escape character enabled.
This first issue above has recently been addressed by gh-34861.
This commit therefore addresses the second issue as follows.
- To allow developers to easily revert to the pre-6.2 behavior without
changes to code or configuration strings, this commit introduces a
`spring.placeholder.escapeCharacter.default` property for use with
SpringProperties which globally sets the default escape character that
is automatically configured in AbstractPropertyResolver and
PlaceholderConfigurerSupport.
- Setting the property to an empty string sets the default escape
character to `null`, effectively disabling the default support for
escape characters.
spring.placeholder.escapeCharacter.default =
- Setting the property to any other character sets the default escape
character to that specific character.
spring.placeholder.escapeCharacter.default = ~
- Setting the property to a string containing more than one character
results in an exception.
- Developers are still able to configure an explicit escape character
in AbstractPropertyResolver and PlaceholderConfigurerSupport if they
choose to do so.
- Third-party components that wish to rely on the same feature can
invoke AbstractPropertyResolver.getDefaultEscapeCharacter() to obtain
the globally configured default escape character.

This part of the reference documentation covers topics that apply to multiple modules

within the core Spring Framework.

== Spring Properties
|
|
|
|
{spring-framework-api}/core/SpringProperties.html[`SpringProperties`] is a static holder
|
|
for properties that control certain low-level aspects of the Spring Framework. Users can
|
|
configure these properties via JVM system properties or programmatically via the
|
|
`SpringProperties.setProperty(String key, String value)` method. The latter may be
|
|
necessary if the deployment environment disallows custom JVM system properties. As an
|
|
alternative, these properties may be configured in a `spring.properties` file in the root
|
|
of the classpath -- for example, deployed within the application's JAR file.
|
|
|
|
The following table lists all currently supported Spring properties.
