Accessing values from Alfresco's alfresco-global.properties file

Question

Lets say I create a custom property called \"test123\" inside of the alfresco-global.properties file. Is there a custom object or some other way which I can use to access it

Answer 1

All properties from the alfresco-global.properties are available as placeholders in the Spring bean definition. You can simply use:

in your bean definition and in alfresco-global.properties:

my.custom.option=Some string value

Injecting the whole global-properties bean (as proposed above) also works but violates the principle of least knowledge.
