Best practice for storing configuration data
Today I run into an dubt:
is the way I always used to store application dependent configuration is
correct?
I use to store this kind of information in the we.xml file using
<context-param> like this one
<context-param>
<param-name>uploadedFilePath</param-name>
<param-value>D:/Documenti/Progetti/jClubHouse/build/uploadedFiles/</para
m-value>
<description>The path to save the uploadedFiles to</description>
</context-param>
and then inside actions, I retrieve it using
String
uploadDir=getServlet().getServletContext().getInitParameter("uploadedFil
ePath");
is there a better practice or is this the right one?

Great,
I like the idea of storing data inside the server.xml or using the admin
tool...
using the <Environment> tag... if you have access to the adminstration
of the server
unfortunately this doesn't work if you just have access to you context
directory...
From what I read on all the thread

the only possibile solution is saving application data in the web.xml
