Subject: Java Configuration


Hi all,
I wanted to know what do different developers use for reading and maitaining
configuration files for there application. 
In past i have used forms of flat files specially constructed for the task,
used properties class, xml, ini file and various other methods. 
I didnt find any unified method of answering the configuration issue.
Currently I have to remember various file's like java.security, java.policy,
App server's configuration file, application's configuration file and who
knows what else as they come and go while I are try to construct something
runnable. And then I run around figuring the right property to be set to
debug the application. I know its not as bad as I make it sound but i wish
there was a better way to do the thing.

If there are other people who share the same feeling about java enviroment,
I would like to hear from them. If there has already been a method found for
solving my gripe and the community is using it i would like to know what i
missed on while i was sleeping.
