Is there a way I can use replaceable parameters in an application's xml
configuration file and pass a value in on the Tomcat command line. In
particular, I would like to set the value of docBase so that I can launch
tomcat and have it find my app in different locations without having to edit
the xml config file.
For example, in the application config file
(say, $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/myAppConfig.xml)
put something like
<Context path="/theAppPath" docBase="${APP_PATH}" ...
so that ${APP_PATH} (or whatever the correct syntax is) gets replaced when
Tomcat is started with something like
$TOMCAT_HOME/bin/startup ... -DAPP_PATH=/my/app/lives/here ...
and have the value for the variable replace the placeholder in the config
file.
Thanks a lot,
Jim Cant
