--Nick,
--
--have a look at
--
--http://castor.exolab.org/conf-lib.html
--
--which essentially tells you that you can place a second
--castor.properties anywhere on your classpath to override any
--settings of the one stored within the JAR file.
--
--I hope this is what you've been looking for .. ;-9.
