How does the config file jets3t.properties get picked up programmatically

[Pierre]

Hi all,

I am new to JetS3t. I am currently doing some poc with the Toolkit
and already having some success, but I was wondering how the config
file "jets3t.properties" gets picked up if I am only including the
necessary jar files in my classpath? In other words, how do I change
any of the options in the properties file and make sure these changes
get picked up when I execute my code? Or how is the config file
included in my code when I am only using the jar files?

Thank you very much in advance for your insight and for the great
tool!

Regards,

Pierre

Hi Pierre,

JetS3t looks for the jets3t.properties file in your Java classpath. As
long as your config file with that name is present in the classpath
your settings will be detected automatically.

To have more programmatic control over you settings, or to tweak
settings on the fly, you can create a JetS3tProperties object and
provide this to a StorageService using one of the more advanced
constructors. For example, you might do something like the following:

// Load your default settings from jets3t.properties file on the classpath
JetS3tProperties myProperties =
JetS3tProperties.getInstance(Constants.JETS3T_PROPERTIES_FILENAME);

// Override default properties (increase number of connections and
threads for threaded service)
myProperties.setProperty("httpclient.max-connections", "100");
myProperties.setProperty("threaded-service.max-thread-count", "50");
myProperties.setProperty("threaded-service.admin-max-thread-count", "100");
