Guys,
I'm doing the exact same thing.
With this in my zone.properties file:
servlet.DoIt.initArgs=toProperties=d:/program files/apache
group/apache/any/directory/you/want
And this in my servlet:
...
public void init (ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {
super.init(config);
toProperties = config.getInitParameter("toProperties");
}
...
I'm able to reach any property file I want.
regards,
Kenneth
