From within a class loaded by the Webapp class loader you can call
InputStream is = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream( "myProps.properties" ); Properties p = new Properties(); p.load( is ); Or from within an action/jsp you can do InputStream is = request.getSession().getServletContext().getResourceAsStream( "myProps.properties" ); Properties p = new Properties(); p.load( is ); You can place the .properties file within your WEB-INF/classes or WEB-INF/lib directory [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Hi! I would like my web-app to read in a *.properties file at startup (not for i18n, but the good old java.util.Properties, for example to get the e-mail address of the admin of the web-app). So I wrote a ServletContextListener which will load the properties-file and store it into servlet context from where it can be accessed throughout my web-app. But where I do have to put the myProps.properties file? I tried WEB-INF/classes, but I get a FileNotFoundException. Or do I have to configure web.xml or struts-config.xml in some way? Or is there a better way to store the required data (such as admin's e-mail)?
