问题
I've got a key = value property in the .properties file:
give names: (1) code = xxx
... but when I tried to get that key, it threw an error:
No message found under code give names: (1) code = xxx
I tried escaping the whitespace with \ but it didn't work.
Do I need to escape :,(, and ) characters as well?

You could check out: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html#load(java.io.Reader)
For info on how java interprets a properties file. The most relevant part is:
The key contains all of the characters in the line starting with the first non-white space character and up to, but not including, the first unescaped '=', ':', or white space character other than a line terminator.

In my case, two leading '\\' working fine for me.
For example : if your word contains the '$' character (e.g. Rf$RF, you can escape it with two leading '\\'
