Web and Production/UAT/Development

[pluck]

What are the best practises for differentiating a web server by
production, uat, and development environment?

I want to deploy the exact same war or ear file to production and test
and have the servlets aware of which environment they are deployed to.

Thanks

Use JNDI to specify your resources (like DataSources and JMS
Connections) and configuration entries (like strings and numbers).

The exact way to set this up is server specific and is supposedly done
by the app-server team.
