Interface ServerProperties

public interface ServerProperties

Supports server configuration by allowing components to retrieve property values from a standard Java properties file. The property values are searched from three locations; values in later locations override values in earlier locations.

1. server.properties in the top level of the server jarfile. This contains standard settings for all the standard server components.
2. A file named server.properties in the current directory.
3. A file provided on the command-line as the value of the config option.
