Properties does have getProperty method

Question

I have this code but the Properties does have the method getProperty()
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
public class TestCode {
    static final String PROPERTY_FILE="JDBC-ODBC Driver.properties";
    String driverName, url, user, password;
    /** Creates a new instance of TestCode */
    public void access() {
        try{
            /* Create an object of the Properties class and load properties. */
            Properties prop=new Properties();
            prop.load(new FileInputStream(PROPERTY_FILE));           
            driverName=prop.getProperty("driver");  // Retrieve driver information.           
            url=prop.getProperty("url");    // Retrieve JDBC URL.
            user=prop.getProperty("user");  // Retrieve user name.
            password=prop.getProperty("password");  // Retrieve password.
            /* Initialize and load a driver. */           
            Class.forName("driverName");
            /* Establish a connection with a database. */
            Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,password);
            /* Create Statement object. */
            Statement stmt=con.createStatement();
            /* Executes a SQL query to retrieve a ResultSet. */
            ResultSet rs=stmt.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM Registered_Users_Information");
            /* Iterate through the ResultSet to display data. */
            while(rs.next()){
                System.out.println(rs.getString("UserName"));
                System.out.println(rs.getString("Password"));
            con.close();
        }catch(Exception ex){
            ex.printStackTrace();
    public static void main(String args[]){
        TestCode t=new TestCode();
        t.access();
}Please show me the problem.

Answer 1

I used this code but it does not exist. Has anyone
tell me why or please five me an advise? The object
prop does not has the method load.
Properties prop=new Properties();
prop.load(new FileInputStream(PROPERTY_FILE));Thanks a lot.
Nguyen_TomRefer to the JDK spec since 1.0, Properties should have all the methods you said you didn't have.
Did your program throw any error messages?? Could you show me?
:D
