Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi there,

Can anyone help, i am porting over some c# to java and of course c# (asp.net) uses a web.config which stores this like connectionStrings and Appsettings..

Where in javafaces (jsf) is the equivalent ? Is it the web.xml, if so is there some class in java that i can use to access sections of the XML config files?

Or is there another way of doing this? Possibly a different file?

Basically i want to use it for storing settings and connection strings (if this is correct place to store connection strings??)..

Any comments really welcome, thanks in advance

ian
