Default.properties in external location

Hi,
I am trying to link eclipse with talend. Currently, I am able to perform the talend job through eclipse by having the Default.properties in the src file. The Default.properties consists of all the connection settings to connect to my database in postgres.
Can the Default.properties file be located at an external locations instead so user will be able to modify the connection settings when they need to. Currently, when I remove the Default.properties, the connection to the database failed.

Default.properties is exported with the job when you export it as an autonomous job (search for context folder in the generated archive file).
However you can decide to have a external context file in an other (more friendly) place.
In TOS go to Job tab, Extra, uncheck "Use project parameters", check "implicit tContextLoad", choose "from file", enter the filename, choose a field separator.
That's all.
Regards,
