Hi, i need to know if it is possible to use for JSP the same -D option like in java java -Dtest=yes test to set init parameters for JSP VM. If yes how i can do this? $Regards
Makro, Do you want to setup some common init params for your web appln? If so we can configure ...WEB-INF/web.xml file like this. Include <context-param> xml tag under <web-app> xml tag. This means, all <param-name>'s are globally known in ALL servlets and ALL jsps in this particular web application. To grab this init param values in servlets/ jsps just write this code. String value = getServletContext().getInitParameter("webmaster"); regds maha anna

I would do as in java with -D attribut then when i use System.getProperty(test) get the value of this parameter that i set when i do the java .... it is important to me know if this is possible and how if is?
Yes, although it is server-dependent. In the .bat file that starts the JVM, you simply add the -Dvar=value entry on that line. If you are using Tomcat 3.x, you can set the TOMCAT_OPTS environment variable to "-Dvar=value" before running startup.bat. Tomcat 4.0 has a similar variable CATALINA_OPTS. ------------------ Phil Hanna Sun Certified Programmer for the Java 2 Platform Author of : JSP: The Complete Reference Instant Java Servlets
