need to set a Map<String, List<String>> using property file

[ATG Developer]

Hi all,

Can anyone suggest me with the syntax how i can set a map with key as
a string and its value as a List or a Map object.

If it is not possible through properties file then is there any way it
can be achieved without hardcoding it in Java file?

Please suggest.

Thanks

Why not have your properties file like this
map=\
key=value1,value2,value3,\
key2=value4,value5,value6,\

you then have 2 maps

private Map<String,String> pubMap

getPubMap()
setPubMap(Map<String,String> pubMap)

private Map<String,List> privateMap

and in doStartService

you iterator over pubMap's keys

then call pubMap.get(key).split(",");

then you can iterator over that and build privateMap the way you want it. 

Since it's in dostart service it will only happen once (assuming it's global)

sorry that's going to be

pubMap=\
key=value1,value2,value3,\
key2=value4,value5,value6,\
