sorry guys, i did have a look at tomcat archives and googled that query too but couldn't find anything for my need
as a run tomcat on win2k platform and i don't want the file to be acceesed for security reasons, i can't cant put it under my webapp root, ( of course i can't use tomcat realm authentication to protect it in this webapp) as this property file does not only contains database parameters i think i can't use either JNDI DATASOURCE so ... would it be a safe and common way to pu it under WEB-INF directory ? thanks for your help -----Message d'origine----- De : Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoy� : lundi 1 d�cembre 2003 20:45 � : Tomcat Users List Objet : RE: Propeties file Howdy, I'd like to know why so few people bother to do a bit of research prior to posting ;( You can search the archives of this list, and you'll see that you have two main choices, summarized as: - Put it under your webapp root, and use ServletContext#getResource(...) - Put it on the classpath, and use ClassLoader#getResource(...) - You have other choices, but they're more complex, e.g. JNDI env-entry-refs - You should NOT use a File-based approach, as it won't work in a packed WAR distribution - Since these are connection properties for a DB, you may wish to let tomcat setup your datasource for you: see the JNDI DataSources How-To document.
