Bob,
I rummaged a bit and found this link: <!--http://jotm.objectweb.org/current/jotm/doc/howto-tomcat-jotm.html-->
It *may* be helpful.

Elaine,
You are correct - a properties file would be easier to use. Unfortunately, I'm the "contractor" on the project and the "employees"
are using the web.xml file with different configurations to process the
same code thru their Testing, QA, Staging and Production environments. They have *lots* of code already written that reads info via the
getInitParameter() call - so mine needs to match.
THANKS for the thought though :)

It is easy to use a Whatever.properties file. Import java.util.Enumeration, java.util.Properties and java.util.ResourceBundle and use the methods from those.
If your db is Oracle, otn has exact code samples in the Java samples. Works great.

I have a doc/lit based web service created by WSDL2Java that implements java.rmi.Remote.
In my code, I have been asked to remove my hard coding of how I access our Data Bases services and to load init parameters to look that information up.
I did a search of the list and found 1 thread from July of 2003 that talked about the getInitParameter() call. In that thread, the author appeared to implement ServiceLifecycle and get access to his context in the init() method.
2 questions:
1) Can I replace the reference to java.rmi.Remote in my code with javax.xml.rpc.server.ServiceLifecycle and use the init() method? I suspect not as my code is doc/lit, but I am no expert.
2) If I can't do the replacement, is the following code correct for accessing the init parameters?
HttpServlet servletContext = (HttpServlet)MessageContext.getCurrentContext().getProperty(HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLET);
String strStaging = servletContaxt.getInitParameter( "MySQL_Staged_ACI"
);
I know that the MySQL_Staged_ACI parameter is defined correctly in my web.xml as I can load it's value from a JSP page and from a servlet I'm using as a reference template.
Thanks for your time!
Bob
