I've been working with appfuse to produce an application and am ready to
deploy for my clients

There is one final piece i need to write in and have no idea how to
implement it.


I need to allow the user to be able to configure the data source (jdbc
properties) once on the first run of the application.  I have written this
so many times in other languages and at a high level the solution is simple:

* Check to see if the app is configured (Some flag in a file)
* Intercept request and redirect to a form asking user to enter JDBC
properties (username password etc..)
* Check data connection works (and if need be that model is reflected in DB
tables)
* set flag to acknowledge system configured.
* all is well.


Unfortunately i am new to struts and spring and have no idea how to do this
with this framework. My guess is that i can (some how) get access to the
JDBC properties and change them but for two reasons:

I am convinced, and i dont know if this is right or not, that the properties
file is compiled into the WAR so they cant be changed at runtime AND i dont
know how or where to get these values from or how to change them.

Any help on both these areas would be great thanks ;-)
