convert
public java.lang.Object convert(java.util.Properties properties, java.lang.String type)
Description copied from interface:Converter
Turn a String-based tree-structure into an Object. Additionally the type of object desired is known. This is usually a Java class, but this is not mandatory.
The properties structure is located at the point of the lookup key, so if the code asked for a com.example.Foo object, the properties structure would be everything below Foo.
To get at the value of com.example.Foo itself, request the empty string, "".
TODO: No way for a converter to know the delimiter-type.
