Providing parameters from context.xml

[eren]

Hi,

Could you use ServletContextPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer instead of PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer. In this way we can set parameters (database driver, database url etc) through context.xml (Tomcat). Moreover, we can deploy single war file to any environment without modifying the content.

This could also be applied to Activit Rest.

    <bean class="org.springframework.web.context.support.ServletContextPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
        <property name="searchContextAttributes" value="true"/>
        <property name="contextOverride" value="true"/>
        <property name="ignoreResourceNotFound" value="true"/>
        <property name="locations">
            <list>
                <value>classpath:db.properties</value>
            </list>
        </property>
    </bean>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks,
Eren

I do not think to replace that in general since you can fairly easily replace that yourself and a change would affect all people.
