167 +==== Configure eomodel connection dictionaries, log4j, additional properties ====
168 +
169 +In my application projects I create an additional folder called 'Properties' which contains additional property files for differing launches.
170 +e.g.,
171 +When connecting to a local database I use the local files listed below during launch:
172 +
173 +{{noformat}}
174 +
175 +jdbc.local.properties
176 +log4j.local.properties
177 +runtime.local.properties
178 +...
179 +jdbc.test.properties
180 +log4j.test.properties
181 +runtime.test.properties
182 +
183 +{{/noformat}}
184 +
185 +To achieve this switching easily I define in the launch configuration for the application the following two additional properties (from those defined globally in WOLips prefs)
186 +
187 +* key: --runtime.config.dir value:"../../Properties"--
188 +* key: --runtime.config.name value:".local"--
189 +
190 +And in my application's Properties file I have the following properties declared
191 +
192 +{{noformat}}
193 +
194 +runtime.config.dir=Properties
195 +runtime.config.name=
196 +
197 +er.extensions.ERXProperties.OptionalConfigurationFiles=(@@runtime.config.dir@@/log4j@@runtime.config.name@@.properties,@@runtime.config.dir@@/jdbc@@runtime.config.name@@.properties,@@runtime.config.dir@@/runtime@@runtime.config.name@@.properties)
198 +
199 +{{/noformat}}
200 +
201 +Naturally, within the jdbc property files are the relevant project wonder properties for configuring the eomodels connection dictionaries, withing the lo4j files are the relevant config for log4j, and runtime properties is available for any special configuration for that particular environment.
