I created some utility classes that read proeprties files (e.g.
com.mvp.utils.ExtProperties). In the method where I try to load the properties
file I have
package com.mvp.utils;
class ExtProperties {
private static PropertyResourceBundle loadProperties(String propsFile) {
PropertyResourceBundle prb =
(PropertyResourceBundle) ResourceBundle.getBundle(propsFile);
return prb;
}
}
This file is then compiled and placed in a jar file, which is copied to my
Tomcat\common\lib directory. Whenver I try to call the ExtProperties class it
fails to find the properties file. If I include the properties file in the jar
file it finds it with no problem. I assume that this is a class loader problem
(which which I am not very familiar).
What do I need to do to get the class in the jar file to find the properties
files external to it? Do I need to specify the full path to the file?
TIA
