I have written my properties loading like this and I found once that it
loaded from the classes directory. I guess the question I have is why it
defaults to the classes directory and how could I set to something like a
conf directory below my main webapp root directory.
The other thing
Hey Shaun --
If the resource name given to getResourceAsStream() isn't found in the web
application locations (WEB-INF/classes, WEB-INF/lib, Tomcat-specific
locations), then the system class loader searches for the given resource in
your classpath one entry at a time. If the properties file
I use the getResourceAsStram() method also, but i find that my IDE, tends
to remove the properties file from my classpath, as soon as I do a build,
which is not nice.
In the particular case i have now, I don't want to specify the parameters
in my web.xml, because the utility that requires a
Hi Mehdi,
I have my properties file in /WEB-INF. Eclipse doesn't delete it
there. I access it with
InputStream propsIn = servletContext.getResourceAsStream(/WEB-
INF/dms.properties);
props.load(propsIn);
As far as I know this also works when the web-app ist deployed
as a war without
Hi,
There was no ServletContext.getResourceAsStream () ... maybe this is
because the whole project is a bunch of utilities for my web-app, and is
not a webapp itself ? The class that needs the properties file, is not part
of the webapp. So anyway, i tried the closest available method.. (or so i
Hi Mehdi,
you could get the resource stream from within a servlet's init()
method (where you have a ServletContext) and pass it to the
other object that needs it.
I do it pretty similar. But instead of passing the stream I pass
the servletContext.

Here is the simple solution
ServletContext sc;
String RootPath=null;
sc = getServletContext();
RootPath = sc.getRealPath(/);

Yes Donie,
but this won't work if the webapp is deployed as a war without
expansion.

Consider dynamically loading the properties file from your classpath using
a class loader. This way, you can put the files anywhere you please and
just include that directory in your classpath (or put them someplace
already in your classpath). If you need more specifics, let me
Justin,
I am facing the same problem. Your approach seems to be an elegent one.
Would you mind eleborating on the idea a little bit more. Some code snippet
would definitely be helpful.
I thank you in advance.

Niaz ...
The idea is to load the properties file like you would any other java
resource at runtime ... this is (almost) always better, IMHO, than using
something J2EE-specific like initialization parameters to a servlet.
The relevant code would look something like this:
InputStream inStream
Put the properties file in the /WEB-INF/classes directory and
use ResourceBundle.getBundle(foo); The name of the properties
file without .properties.
