Re: external properties

[Frank W. Zammetti]

Is the path to the config file something you can hard-code?  If so, how 
about simply a class with a static initializer block to read the config 
file, then expose the values through a static getConfig() method 
returning a static HashMap?  That's about as simple, light-weight and 
environment-agnostic solution as I can think of, IF you can live with 
hard-coding the path.  Perhaps have the path a part of some app-specific 
config file that IS in your WAR, pointing to the config file OUTSIDE the 
 WAR?  That feels like it's getting a bit more complicated, but 
depending on how big a deal the hard-coding is to you, may not be a big 
deal.

Hello world,
What would be the best pratice to get properties from an external file?
(I mean this file is not part of my war).
I'd like it to be read on servelt startup and properties to be be
available in servlet context ...
I though about a struts plugIn , but it seems a bit heavy solution.
Easier ?
