Just write a helper class that opens the file, loads it into a properties
object, reads the properties, and closes the file. Something like the
following:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Properties;
public final class SilvaProperties {
public SilvaProperties setProperty(String file, String key, String
value) {
key = Replace.replace(key, " ", "");
File hold = new File(file);
Properties properties = new Properties();
try {
FileInputStream input = new FileInputStream(hold);
properties.load(input);
properties.setProperty(key, value);
FileOutputStream output= new FileOutputStream(hold);
properties.store(output, " -- TRESBEAU -- ");
output.close();
input.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
} catch (IOException ioe) {
}
return this;
}
public String getProperty(String file, String key) {
key = Replace.replace(key, " ", "");
File hold = new File(file);
Properties properties = new Properties();
try {
FileInputStream input = new FileInputStream(hold);
properties.load(input);
input.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
} catch (IOException ioe) {
}
return properties.getProperty(key);
}
public Properties getProperties(String file) {
Properties properties = new Properties();
File hold = new File(file);
try {
FileInputStream input = new FileInputStream(hold);
properties.load(input);
input.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
} catch (IOException ioe) {
}
return properties;
}
public final class Replace {
public synchronized static String replace(String content,
String before, String after) {
int position = content.indexOf(before);
while (position > -1) {
content = content.substring(0, position)
+ after + content.substring(position + before.length());
position = content.indexOf(before,
position + after.length());
}
return content;
}
}
}
}
