We have some configurations (e.g. URL for webservices), which are coming from 
properties defined in the launch command of the application server (e.g 
-Dws.url=...).

We do in this way, instead of using properties file, because the client (bank) 
environment for deploying is very rigid and unconvenient even for redeploying a 
war. That's why we decided to keep some properties outside of the war file.

The client environment is very unstable, where many errors happens during the 
deployment. So we think that defining some properties using the command line 
can give us some more flexibility.

Anyway we found some compromised solution using the ApplicationContext.close() 
method. It's not perfect, but we can live with that.

best regards
giovanni

@Giovanni,

Maybe you should re-think that requirement. 

Even thought your intentions are good, if you review carefully your
statement "if some important configuration is missing", what could be
missing if you deploy your application as a self contained war? You mean
like DataSources or Container specific configuration?

If that happens to you then you should need to review your deployment
strategy. Or if you can explain more what are you trying to achieve or
explain what problem is you actually having, we could find you an alternate
solution.
