I am loading properties file using spring
<bean id="appProperties" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="locations" value="classpath:/sample.properties" />
<property name="ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders" value="true"/>
</bean>
when i am getting property value using
@Value("${testkey}")
its working fine.
but when i am trying to get using env
@Resource
private Environment environment;
environment.getProperty("testkey") // returning null
A PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer
does not add the properties from its locations
to the Environment
. With Java config, you can use @PropertySource
to do that.
If any one want to achieve this without using @PropertySource
use ApplicationContextInitializer interface and its companion, the contextInitializerClasses servlet context param.
add this in web.xml
<context-param>
<param-name>contextInitializerClasses</param-name>
<param-value>com.test.MyInitializer</param-value>
</context-param>
and define your Initializer
public class MyInitializer implements ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableWebApplicationContext> {
public void initialize(ConfigurableWebApplicationContext ctx) {
PropertySource ps = new ResourcePropertySource(new ClassPathResource("sample.properties")); // handle exception
ctx.getEnvironment().getPropertySources().addFirst(ps);
}
}
