Answer 1

You can escape the spaces in your properties file, but I think it will start to look pretty ugly.

username=a
password=b
Parent\ file\ name=c
Child\ file\ name=d

You might be better of writing your own implementation with split() or indexOf() or whatever your heart desires to avoid any future bugs and/or headaches.
