Thank you much for your response.

I am looking for a mechanism that would do the inclusion
at runtime (as in when Tomcat starts up). Hence I am unable
to use gcc. I assumed that the Java property files intrinsically
support #include making this transparent to Tomcat itself.
Perhaps I am mistaken?

In any event, thanks much for your helpful suggestion.

Regards,

/U

Not out of the box. I'm sure that you can script something to this  
effect in your system's startup script though. Add some placeholders  
and used sed or even gcc's precompiler if you insist on the #include  
syntax.

Personally I store all my configurations in SVN, relying on SVN's diff  
function to help me iron out any differences. Granted, that won't  
scale beyond 10 or so Tomcat configurations, but it does the job until  
you reach that stage.

Change is good. Granted, it is good in retrospect, but change is good.
