How System.getProperty() method works ?

[Emmaar]

Hi,

I have the below line in my java code which returns HPS555P.

System.getProperty("CICS.EYE.pdpCustDetailR.packageset"

I want to know from where it picks up this value and how I can amend it.

Thanks and Regards,
Ramkumar

I think it comes from the registry, or environment variables - but I cannot be sure.

Anyway, to set it, call

System.setProperty("CICS.EYE.pdpCustDetailR.packageset", "newvalue"

hi!

read this:

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/system/properties.html

if i understood this correctly then your properties must have been set somewhere in java-code (because they are not in the above list) and can not be found in your system environment. search your code for a call to setProperty(...)

I found that the system reads the values from a .properties file.

Thank you very much for your efforts.
