Ulrich Heidfeld commented on OFBIZ-11281:
-----------------------------------------
Hello [~mthl],
thanks for your teaching words.
In our project, we are using something like:
StringUtil.strToMap(UtilProperties.getPropertyValue(...))
If there is no according property value, an empty string will be returned.
I would prefer null instead of Collections.emptyMap as return value because we don't need to initiate a map if it has no informations in it. In addition, if a date time isn't set in properties, an empty value could be take as wrong date.
