[solved]read alfresco configuration file in a java class

Hi I would like to know if there's a class in the alfresco API which could allow me to read one of the xml configuration files that exists or access one of the alfresco folder (like the install folder). My goal is to ask the user to set a parameter (an ip adress) in an xml configuration file and t

Thank you for the advice. Actually, I'm trying to create a new action called download-action which will get the file from a distant server instead of retrieving its content from the cm:content property. I started writing the java class and I also wrote a download-action-context.xml file which is :

<beans>
      
    <!– Download Action Bean –>
    <bean id="download-action" class="com.alfresco.customUI.actions.DownloadActionExecuter" parent="action-executer">
       <property name="nodeService">
         <ref bean="NodeService" />
      </property>
      <property name="exchangeServer">
         <value>192.168.20.241</value>
      </property>
      <property name="fileServer">
         <value>192.168.20.221</value>
      </property>
   </bean>
   
      <!– Action properties –>
   <bean id="extension.actionResourceBundles" parent="actionResourceBundles">
      <property name="resourceBundles">
         <list>
            <value>alfresco.extension.download-action-messages</value>
         </list>
      </property>
   </bean>
      
</beans>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I added my ip addresses as properties. But now, I don't know how to access theses properties in my class :?:
Do get and set for each properties in my class are enought? Is this the right way to proceed ?

Thank you
