--- Comment #5 from Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> --- (In reply to Michael Osipov from comment #2) > * From code, this will not work, XML only True, but not really relevant. If you want to re-use passwords (or files), you can do that in your code pretty easily. > * Most people don't even know system identifiers or DTDs at all Also true, but this is standard XML and not some weird hand-wavy thing that Tomcat invented like "property sources". > * What will happen if the file contains a line separator? Will it be > stripped automatically? I haven't done extensive testing, but I believe exotic whitespace will be preserved. So if you have a trailing newline in your file, then your password will also have a trailing newline. So be careful. But you'd have to do that, anyway. If Tomcat were to implement a "use this file here" attribute resolver, then we would not want to be doing things like trimming whitespace or anything like that, either. (In reply to Remy Maucherat from comment #3) > .../ServiceBindingPropertySource This was going to be my next suggestion. I only recently discovered this capability existed and I fully intend to start playing-around with it because our current build process requires us to build locally in each environment to get e.g. database credentials into the right place in context.xml. But... I think the ServiceBindingPropertySource only works with applications, not with server.xml, right Rémy? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
