Use Wonder's eomodel connection dictionary properties and create a properties file with the different settings for each scenario and use Wonder's optional configuration file property to select the appropriate configuration as a launch argument is one way to handle this situation:

er.extensions.ERXProperties.OptionalConfigurationFiles=/etc/ Properties.livedeployment

We have 4 different environments that we deploy to, development, test, staging, and production. We are using ant as our build tool.

For most of our environments we connect to a localhost database with a common password, but production is on an external server which has a more secure password. What is the best way to change the db connection at build time?

Example:
When I build for production, I want to make sure the connection is pointing to the correct server and the password is correct.


I know I can use ant to search and replace for connection string tokens in the Properties file, but is this the easiest way?
