Dynamically define DB connection parameters in server.properties during runtime

[ksusweep]

I'd like to be able to define new DB connection parameters in server.properties during run time w/o having to restart the server (i.e. the entries that defines the driver, database type, user, password, etc).

I am trying to do this in a Servlet that gets initialized after com.isomorphic.base.Init by putting new connection properties as follows:

Properties properties = getDynamicProperties();

iterate through the properties {
Config.getGlobal().put(key, value);
}

This seems to work for some DataSource.... but not those that inlcudes other DataSources.

Is there a reason why this won't work?

Could you clarify "include other DataSources"? Field of type DataSource? field.includeFrom? DataSource.inheritsFrom?

Sorry, false alarm. This does work.

By the way, include = includeFrom:

<field name="appName" title="Application"
includeFrom="appName.name"/>

However, as I said, false alarm. Thanks for responding so quickly.

Ksusweep,

Does your use case consist of being able to change the db connection parameters while your webapp has been up and running?
