>Hey everybody, st00pid newbie here... I've gone through the torque
(B>tutorial successfully and experimented a bit beyond it but now I'm
(B>trying to use torque in a web application for the first time and have
(B>run into some trouble. I'm confused about the Torque.properties file
(B>and the init() method. I've placed the Torque.properties file in the
(B>root of my .war, in WEB-INF/, WEB-INF/classes, WEB-INF/lib, just about
(B>everywhere, but when I call init("Torque.properties") it can't find it.
(B> Where is it supposed to live and how do I reference it?
(B
(BMy solution is to have an initializer servlet. It passes a phycial path
(Bof the properties file to the init(). Attached is a copy of that servlet
(Bthat might be usefull for you.
(B
(BYou need to make it called when the servlet engine is started. To do
(Bthat the following snippet in web.xml of your application will work:
(B
(B <servlet>
(B <servlet-name>initializer</servlet-name>
(B <servlet-class>com.utility.Initializer</servlet-class>
(B
(B <init-param>
(B <param-name>log4j-property-file</param-name>
(B <param-value>WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties</param-value>
(B </init-param>
(B
(B <init-param>
(B <param-name>torque-property-file</param-name>
(B <param-value>WEB-INF/classes/Torque.properties</param-value>
(B </init-param>
(B
(B <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
(B </servlet>
(B
(BPlease note that the servlet also initializes log4j, which you may want
(Bto ignore it.
(B
(B>Also, do I
(B>call init() in each class that uses Torque or do I need to somehow only
(B>call it once when the web app is deployed? Sorry if this is a dumb
(B>question, but I can't find anything in the docs to help me. Thanks
(B>much.
(B
(BYou only need to call init() one time.
