Remove the config file from the war file, and ask the user to place that
properties file in the classpath.

Subject: deploying a struts application


i have a question on deployment.

i am thinking of packaging my application as a war file, and letting the
users place this in the right location in their container.  the only problem
is that there is a config file that needs to be edited prior to the
application working.  the config file lives in a specific path within the
class files.  so the users have to un-war the files first to get at the
config file, which i think defeats the purpose and convenience of it a bit.

is there another standard way to distribute config files so the users can
make changes to them at the same time as deployment of the war?  any tricks
that you all have come across?

thanks,
mark
