sitemesh + views configuration

[me <ml...@e-beyond.de>]

Hi,

I'm working on configuration issues and I'm searching for the best way to
have a consitent configuration over the whole webapp (or more webapps).

The webapp has got a sitemesh-freemarker-template and the views are done 
with jsps.
What I wanted to do is to have configuratio values (such as hostnames of 
other servers)
on a single point (for example in a database). So I can access them also 
from the other servers
and have a confiuration repository which i can change on a development 
environment to use it on a productional site.

Does anybody have a "great/best way" idea?

Marc

One approach is to place those resources in a directory accessed via 
JNDI.  That will allow you to share resources between your apps and 
containers.
There is overhead associated with JNDI lookups but it's supported by 
every J2EE container.  It may be over-the-top for what you want.
