In Tomcat (and some other servlet containers) I can store information about my JDBC DataSource in META-INF/context.xml. This is very useful.
However, the settings for my JDBC DataSource can be different in my development and production environments. I’d like to know how other people deal with these differences in an elegant way, specifically how can I set up a context.xml for my development environment and one for my production environment in the most hassle-free manner.
You can create different files for specific builds. For example, create: development.context.xml production.context.xml
Then, you can control which context file is used in your build.xml file. Basically, setup a prompt for which type of build you would like to use. When you select development, it uses the development context file. When you select production, it uses the production context file.
