Servlet initialization parameters are kept in the servlets.properties file,
which is part of the servlet engine you are using.  With JRun for instance,
it is under ...\JRun\jsm-default\services\jse\properties\ directory.

Here are the sample entries from this file for a simple servlet called
MyServlet in JRun...

servlet.MyServlet.code=MyServlet
servlet.MyServlet.args=name1=value1,name2=value2  // here are the name=value
pairs
servlet.MyServlet.preload=false

You then can reference...

String myInitParam1 = getInitParameter("name1")

...to return the "value1", within the init() method of the servlet.

Hope this clears it up a little

|Hi! I am a newbie to Servlet. Can anyone tell me how to use
|getInitParameter()? I think I should put the parameters into a
|configuration file as name/value pairs. Can anyone tell me the details?
|
|Thank you!
