How to read a configuration file in Java

问题:

I am doing a project to build thread pooled web server, in which I have to set

• the port number on which server listens.
• How many threads are there in thread pool
• Absolute Path of the root directory, and so many points.

One way is to hard code all these variables in the code, that I did. But professionally it is not good.

Now, I want to make one configuration file, in which I put all these data, and at the run time my code fetches these.

How can I make configuration file for the above task ?

回答1:

Create a configuration file and put your entries there.

SERVER_PORT=10000     
THREAD_POOL_COUNT=3     
ROOT_DIR=/home/   

You can load this file using Properties.load(fileName) and retrieved values you get(key);

回答2:

It depends.

Start with Basic I/O, take a look at Properties, take a look at Preferences API and maybe even Java API for XML Processing and Java Architecture for XML Binding

And if none of those meet your particular needs, you could even look at using some kind of Database

Properties prop = new Properties();
String fileName = "app.config";
InputStream is = null;
try {
    is = new FileInputStream(fileName);
} catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
    ...
}
try {
    prop.load(is);
} catch (IOException ex) {
    ...
}
System.out.println(prop.getProperty("app.name"));
System.out.println(prop.getProperty("app.version"));

app.config:

app.name=Properties Sample Code
app.version=1.09
