Any servlet container allows you to pass arguments to the init function of
the servlet.  For weblogic, it's:

weblogic.httpd.initArgs.ServletName=key1=val1,key2=val2...

(in the weblogic.properties file)

Subject: Passing environment to servlets


We have servlets that need to connect to a JNDI implementation to locate
other objects.  In addition, the servlets redirect to certain URLs depending
on results.

We would like to be able to completely paramatise this - so that we don't
need to hard code any values into the servlet.

I presume I can hold the later requirement in JNDI, but what about the
former - is there a better way than a parameter to the JVM ?

Also, how would I bind values to the JNDI (we are using WebLogic but I hope
it is a standard mechanism) and what is the lookup string required ?

TIA

Ed
