RE: How to read property files?

[Samson, Lyndon [IT]]

This works a treat for me

  InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("myapp.properties");
  Properties p = new Properties();
  try {
    p.load(is);
  } catch ( java.io.IOException e ) {
    // Can't load props file
  }
 
That way the properties file can be anywhere in the classpath.

Subject: How to read property files?


I would like to put a myapp.properties file in the top level directory
of my webapp. But I can't figure out what filepath to give the
Properties.load() method in order to load my servlet property object.
Can someone help me?

Thanks
