thank you for the attention, im developing a bean to interact with the
properties file.
I believe that ServletContext is only available to servlets,
but perhaps the filename can be a parameter in the constructor :D
the reason why im using a properties file is to make the configuration
transparent and easy, to my clients...
so i they change the mysql db parameters they can easily edit the properties
file without much knowledge.
also another advantage i saw in that was the ability to load and save
directly to a file.
if there is a better way im all ears :)

Assunto: RE: properties files
You need to put your property files in WEB-INF/classes or in a jar in
WEB-INF/lib
Then you can use the getResourceAsStream(..) method of the ServletContext of
your webapp :
properties.load(getServletContext().getResourceAsStream(filePath))
