title: Passing encrypted properties to spring context
body: <p>I never seen this but I wondering if somebody has come across. Having a web server which access a database. I want to pass the database password encrypted and have spring context decrypting it before setting the datasource. I know the spring security can do some of this like using a salt file in the web server, etc.</p>
  
  <p>The challenge here is that I don't want to give a clear user,password,url to the web server team. Just an encrypted password and have spring decrypted before using it.</p>
  
  <p>Is there something like this already? I know I could code something but is it already done?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
