Thanks Mike, Chuck and John.
@ John,
No, its not like that.
using the 1.3.1 jar file and directly setting the properties in the web.xml
under <filter> under <init-param> I am able to run everything fine even in
eclipse development phase.
This is only breaking when I try to read the properties from an external
property file.
@ Mike:
I am setting the property as said by Mike like below:
-Djcifs.properties=<System Full Path>\jcifs.properties
e.g. (in my case) :
-Djcifs.properties=C:\Workspace_Eclipse33_SBC\JCIFS\WebContent\WEB-INF\opt\jcifs.properties
in the server (Tomcat here) as command line setting.
And now in Development phase in Eclipse IDE , when I access the property in
my custom Ntlmfilter
like below:
public class NtlmCustomisedHttpFilter extends NtlmHttpFilter {
public void init( FilterConfig filterConfig ) throws ServletException {
String justGet = System.getProperty("jcifs.properties");
String propFile =
filterConfig.getInitParameter("jcifs.properties");
// Config.setProperty("jcifs.properties", propFile);
System.out.println("-----------========================----------------------");
System.out.println("justGet = "+justGet);
System.err.println("Path of property file = "+propFile);
System.err.println(Config.getProperty("jcifs.netbios.wins", null));
System.err.println(Config.getProperty("jcifs.smb.client.domain",
null));
System.out.println("-----------========================----------------------");
super.init(filterConfig);
}
}
I am getting below outputs from above in the eclipse consol :
INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/6.0.18
-----------========================----------------------
justGet = null
Path of property file =
C:\Workspace_Eclipse33_SBC\JCIFS\WebContent\WEB-INF\opt\jcifs.properties
null
null
-----------========================----------------------

As you can see when I launch the tomcat within the eclipse ide and test the
application.
still I get a Null for System.getProperty("jcifs.properties").
BUT, if I deploy the application as a war file and launching the Tomcat out
side eclipse and access the application, it executes fine without error.
Means in this case System.getProperty("jcifs.properties") manages to read
from the
-Djcifs.properties=C:\Workspace_Eclipse33_SBC\JCIFS\WebContent\WEB-INF\opt\jcifs.properties
from the command line proerty set in the tomcat server.
But in the former case (Launching the application Run/ Debug mode in Eclipse
with Tomcat), System.getProperty("jcifs.properties") does not read the
settings by default.
I looked up some help in Eclipse itself, and found that (probably) we need
to pass the system settings in the "eclipse.ini" file as
-Djcifs.properties=<System Full Path>\jcifs.properties
But again System.getProperty("jcifs.properties") does not reading the
settings in the Eclipse development environment.
Note: I must clear, In my development phase, Relationship between eclipse
and tomcat is, my application stays in the eclipse workspace only. Means
neither the application directory get copied nor the application war file
get copied to inside the "webapps" directory of tomcat.
So thats why may be -Djcifs.properties=<System Full Path>\jcifs.properties
in the Tomcat as command line might not be working.
Thanks
