Re: java class not able to read properties file from IFS

Ashish,

When you're submitting your job, it's defaulting your current directory to 
your home/username/ directory...I think you have to set the current 
directory of the job in your CL program...

CHGCURDIR DIR('/approve/')

hope that helps...

Shane

java class not able to read properties file from IFS






Hi
I have a java program running in batch, i submit this
java program from CL, in CL i set class path as
follows
/approve/bin/approve.jar:/approve/
suppose this is my file structure in IFS
/-
  --approve-
            |
            --
            | |
            | -- bin 
            |       |
            |        -- approve.jar
            |
            | 
            JDBCConnection.properties 
In a java class i try to access
JDBCConnection.properties file as below
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.load(new
FileInputStream("JDBCConnection.properties"));

I get file not found exception,
But i copy this file to /home/<myuserid>/ folder on
IFS then it finds it,

What do i have to do so that java program will find it
in /approve/ folder

Ashish
