Context loading of .properties files

[Ronald G. Louzon]

I have several contexts which use a ".properties" file for configuration.  I need each context to have its own version of that configuration file.  Is there a way to load properties files based on context?  I am looking for a way to load properties files that is similar to the way in which class and lib files are loaded by the servlet class loader.  Ideally, the properties files would be automatically loaded from some place under the WEB-INF directory of a given contest.   Thanks, ron
