Hi,

I have code a servlet that can connect to the database.
But I find my design not good enough.

The main reason is because the connection string is coded
inside. Should I change database or database instance,
I would need to change the code and recompile the source.

I'm thinking of putting the connection string in a text file
and have my servlets access this file and read it in.
This way all I need is to change the text file or initialization
file and my class file remains the same.

Does anyone have any snippets of code where I can learn how
to read from a file ?

Another area, is if I use a file for initilization purpose,
I will have lots of sections. Examples are section for connection string,
for constants (maybe) etc.
Whats the best way to use a text file for init. purpose.

Thanks
