Method Detail

getProperty

public String getProperty(String key)

Any parameter like ${propertyName} in property value will be replaced with the value of property with name propertyName.

For example, for the following set of properties:

 param1=abcd
 param2=efgh
 param3=Alphabet starts with: ${param1}${param2}
 

The call props.getProperty("param3") returns:

Alphabet starts with: abcdefgh

Note also that call props.get("param3") returns:

Alphabet starts with: ${param1}${param2}

So the Map.get(java.lang.Object) works as usual and returns raw (not expanded with substituted parameters) property value.

Returns:

sub-properties
