Hi,
I am trying to read from a property file using the following code. I
dont get the value for "name" key. So I tried to read the number of
keys in the file, that too return 0. Could you please help me.

Code:
----------

static String rateFinder()
{
    int elen=0;
    Properties props=new Properties();

    try
    {
        props.load( new FileInputStream(new File("test.properties")));
    }
    catch(IOException ie)
    {
        System.out.println("Error reading file");
    }
      // String key = "name";
      // String val = props.getProperty(key,"notfound");

       Enumeration enum = props.keys();
    while(enum.hasMoreElements())
    {
        elen+=1;
    }
   return Integer.toString(elen);
}

test.properties
----------------------
name=subi
roll=101
mark1=100

*****
Both the files are in same location, indeed i do not get IOException.
It seems the method reads the file but not the contents. Pls help.

Thanks,
subi.
