Chuck's note about using ServletContext.getResourceAsStream is a good one. Since Properties files are always in ISO-8859-1, there's no really good reason to use a Reader. Just get the stream and allow Properties.load to read from it. ServletContext.getResourceAsStream always loads things relative to the context root (and can look in the WAR file, etc.), so Chuck's example of "WEB-INF/myConfig.properties" will load a file found in /your/path/to/deploy/your-webapp/WEB-ING/myConfig.properties". Hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFulNL9CaO5/Lv0PARAp2qAJ4lilmNoyqLa5RZ9fEaUTZMlk//BQCdFeoy S1zp75YBbtbIOquy9MyLUFY= =xatx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
