Openoffice path and other app properties on runtime

apunzi · November 20, 2018, 1:28pm

Is there a way to change Openoffice path (reporting.openoffice.path) programmatically?

And any other app property?

If not, Then how do I set the Path where OppenOffice is installed yet?
Must I recompile my project and install it again?
Need I to keep a config file for each customer?

You can override the setting per running application through tomcat -D options. So no need to compile them in but they need to be set on deploying an application.

Hi,

There is a deployment configuration mechanism described here. It enables you to customize application properties in a separate local.app.properties file without touching your application JARs.

See also documentation on application properties.

I do not know how I have obviated this. I have read this documentation several times, and I have never fully understood it, until now. I had always thought it was referring to build your own configuration set, not the standard app properties.
