@Value error: SpelParseException

[jemarjemarjemar]

Hi Expert Community,

I have a simple @Value annnotation code:

	@Value("${predef.queries.list}")
	private String predefQueries;

And on my properties file:

predef.queries.list=#{'asm':'ASM', 'tbs':'Tablespace', 'cpu':'CPU'}

When I start the webserver I got the following error:

SEVERE: Servlet /capman threw load() exception
org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelParseException: EL1041E:(pos 5): After parsing a valid expression, there is still more data in the expression: 'colon(:)'

But when I changed the properties file value to below I don't get an error anymore.

predef.queries.list='asm':'ASM', 'tbs':'Tablespace', 'cpu':'CPU'

Can you please help me how can I fix this to use my original properties file value?
Is there a way to escape characters in properties file?

Thanks!
