spring如何动态加载配置文件，就是配置文件修改了，application.xml如何能读取到

项目，需要访问多个数据库，而且需要在服务器运行不重新启动的情况下，动态的修改spring中配置的数据源datasource，在网上找了很多资料，最后找到了适合我的方法，下面总结一下。
spring的配置文件是在容器启动的时候就加载到内存中的，如果手动改了application.xml，我们必须要重新启动服务器配置文件才会生效。而在spring中提供了一个类WebApplicationContext，这个类可以让你获得一些bean，可以修改内存中的信息，我就是通过这个类来实现的。下面是我具体的代码。

package com.southdigital.hospital;

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.servlet.ServletContext;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.web.context.support.WebApplicationContextUtils;

import com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource;

public class ChangeSpringConfig extends HttpServlet
{

private String ipAddress = "127.0.0.1";

/**
* The doGet method of the servlet.

*
* This method is called when a form has its tag value method equals to get.
*
* @param request the request send by the client to the server
* @param response the response send by the server to the client
* @throws ServletException if an error occurred
* @throws IOException if an error occurred
*/

public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
doPost(request, response);
}

/**
* The doPost method of the servlet.

*
* This method is called when a form has its tag value method equals to post.
*
* @param request the request send by the client to the server
* @param response the response send by the server to the client
* @throws ServletException if an error occurred
* @throws IOException if an error occurred
*/
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
//先取得servleContext对象，提供给spring的WebApplicationUtils来动态修改applicationContext.xml

ipAddress = request.getParameter("ipAddress");
System.out.println(ipAddress);

ServletContext servletContext = this.getServletContext();
WebApplicationContext applicationContext = WebApplicationContextUtils.getWebApplicationContext(servletContext);
ComboPooledDataSource cpds = (ComboPooledDataSource) applicationContext.getBean("dataSource");
cpds.setJdbcUrl("jdbc:mysql://"+ipAddress+":3306/ssh");

}

}
注意：通过这种方法修改applicationContext.xml文件的时候用c3p0,而不可以用dbcp，dbcp不支持动态修改读取到内存里面的数据。
spring 3.1已经支持了。
