Setting environment variables in server.xml.

2005-10-04 Thread David Kerber
If I'm reading it correctly, according to the docs, I should be able to 
set an environment variable in server.xml, like the built-in example:


Environment name=simpleValue type=java.lang.Integer value=30/


Unfortunately, I can't get this to work; I can't read in simpleValue, or 
the ones I really want to do when they are defined in server.xml.  But I 
have no problems when I put them into the application's web.xml; they 
come in just fine using the InitialContext stuff from the docs.  Is 
there something extra I need to do to make them visible from server.xml?


Thanks,
Dave

David, 
 
Just in case you haven't done this yet, have you checked to see if the 
environment variable shows up as a catalina:type=Environment MBean? if so you 
should be able to access it. Hope this helps.

Nope, never heard of that one.  I'll see if I can figure out how to get 
at that type.

if you are using 5.5x you can look at the mbean with jmxproxy which is part of 
the manager app.
