Reading Properties file in Jython

[Jacob John]

Hi All,

In my jython script i want to read a properties file like.

import java.util as util
import java.io as javaio

properties = util.Properties
#add try catch for this
propertiesfis =javaio.FileInputStream("wasconfig.properties")
properties.load( propertiesfis)

While running this script its showing the error

File "<string>", line 19, in ?
TypeError: load(): expected 2 args; got 1

But the java syntax for java.util.Properties.load() takes only one parameter. So what else jython is expecting here?

Can any one help me in this. Thanks in advance.

Regards
Jacob

This got corrected. I had to use properties = util.Properties() instead of properties = util.Properties

Ah, that makes sense. The util.Properties would be a reference to Properties.class rather than instantiating an instance of the Properties class.

Thanks for updating with the solution.
