[Wrapper-user] Question about wrapper configuration files

[Merri J. <Mer...@sa...>]

I'm not sure of the appropriate forum for this question so I thought I =
would start here first.

The java applications I support use a common launcher.exe and =
launcher.sh file to execute.  We have an ini formatted file that drives =
the generic launcher where we list the java location, the command line =
arguments, and the working directory.  We also use the Service Wrapper =
to start some of these applications as a service. =20

We may have multiple apps deployed on the same machine, so we have =
implemented the launchers in such a way as to allow us to use a master =
config file.  Basically, it's a file that contains a list of variables =
and their values (they are mostly paths) that we can then reference by =
variable name in the ini files for each of the app launchers.  This =
creates a kind of lookthrough so that our customers are able to update =
the value of a common variable in the master config file without having =
to go and update each individual application ini file.

I need to be able to do this same kind of "lookthrough" with the =
wrapper.conf files we have created for the service launchers.  I have =
read the information about the cascading configuration files, but I'm =
not sure if the options have to match exactly in the included file.  Our =
options do not match, so I'm trying to see if there is a way to make =
this work without having to make code changes.  I've included a sample =
of what I am looking to do is below.

Master.config file:

[properties]
JRE_PATH=3DC:/jre/bin/java.exe
PROP_1=3DC:/some_path/to_some_file
PROP_2=3DC:/another_path/1.0


Wrapper.conf:

wrapper.java.command=3D<JRE_PATH>
wrapper.java.classpath.1=3D<PROP_2>/wrapper.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.2=3D<PROP_2>/xyz.jar
wrapper.java.additional.1=3D-Dcom.testing.value=3D<PROP_1>/abc/xyz


Is this even possible?

Thanks for any and all assistance with this.
