JCS will look for a system property for any name inside the delimiters ${}. Also, JCS will check to see if any property key in the cache.ccf is defined in the system properties. If so, the system value will be used.

I don't think that it's possible out of the box but it's easily implemented by loading the properties and performing the substitution yourself. The 'ConfigUtil.substituteProperties' call is a custom utility and must be replaced by somthing available in your environment. // Get unconfigured instance CompositeCacheManager ccm = CompositeCacheManager.getUnconfiguredInstance(); // Load properties from the ccf file Properties props = new Properties(); is = ClassLoaderUtil.getInstance().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(JCS_PROPERTIES_FILE); if (is != null) { // Load props.load(is); // Replace custom/env variables Iterator entries = props.entrySet().iterator(); while (entries.hasNext()) { Entry e = (Entry) entries.next(); e.setValue(ConfigUtil.substituteProperties((String) e.getValue(), true)); } // Configure cache system with replaced props ccm.configure(props); } --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: jcs-users-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: jcs-users-h...@jakarta.apache.org
