p: property with data coming from a .properties file

[clincks]

Hi,

I would like to combine the power of p:someData with value comming from a property file.

Somethink similar to:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
	   xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
	   xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p" 
	   xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
	   xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
						   http://www.springframework.org/schema/util http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.0.xsd">
	<util:properties id="properties" location="classpath:META-INF/config/datasource.properties" />
	<!-- JDBC DataSource -->
	<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource"
    p:driverClassName="${datasource.driverClassName}"
		p:url="${datasource.url}" 
		p:username="${datasource.username}" 
		p:password="${datasource.password}">
	</bean>
	<!-- JNDI DataSource -->
	<!--
		<jee:jndi-lookup id="datasources.samples" jndi-name="${datasource.jndi.name}">
		<jee:environment>target=${properties.dataSource.jndi.target}</jee:environment> </jee:jndi-lookup>
	-->
</beans>

Thanks.

Perhaps you should try asking a specific question?

Well,

The question whas "how to do this" ?

It looks that p:blabla is not accepting value passed from the property file.

Did I make a mistake or is it not supported ?

Thanks for help.

	<context:property-placeholder properties-ref="properties"/>

	<util:properties id="properties" location="classpath:META-INF/config/datasource.properties" />
	
	<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource"
		p:driverClassName="${datasource.driverClassName}" 
		p:url="${datasource.url}" 
		p:username="${datasource.username}"
		p:password="${datasource.password}" />

I hope that it helps someone ;-)
