How can a session EJB read password-protected file

[bensench]

I need a session EJB to access a password protected file, what's the best way to make the password available to
the session EJB? Is it possible to prompt the system admin for the password
when Jboss starts up?

For properties needed for an application, the FAQ mentions about using org.jboss.varia.property.SystemPropertiesService to access the properties defined for the mbean SystemPropertiesService which can be used to access the defined properties. Questions:

I can't find the jar file containing SystemPropertiesService class. Does anyone know where I can get the jar file?

Thanks in advance for your help.

You can popup a window using an mbean
at startup. But once you start swing or awt it
is never unloaded.

The property service is properties-plugin.jar
the mbean is defined in conf/jboss-service.xml

Is the mbean available or do I have to design a new
one?

Do you mean that the popup window will stay so long
as jboss is running?

Thanks,

There is no such mbean.

Once AWT is loaded, it remains resident inside
the VM until it stops.
