whatsup with env-entry in web.xml and other property flakiness

[Rick Bosch <rb...@actv.com>]

tried to set some values in the env-entry in web.xml, but I cant seem to get
them out with System.getProperty() and I looked in the petstore demo and
they use some jndi thing that seems like overkill for what I need.

I also cant set variable in the tomcat .properties with
wrapper.env=[name]=[value] , htis was always flaky in jserv.  Has anybody
got this working .

I cant even get wrapper.bin.parameters=-Drick=izmyname  to work.

Basically is anyone able to pass runtime properties to your program and how
are you doing it,  or have you got any of the above working?

thanks();
