How to get Splunk port using Splunk Java SDK?

Is there any way to find out the port on which Splunk is set up programmatically using Splunk Java SDK? Basically to read the entry from $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/web.conf?

The Java SDK has a class named "Settings" with methods to retrieve host and port values, among other settings.

Or use REST directly, as Rich said. Many ways to skin a cat. 🙂

Use the SDK to send the REST command /services/configs/conf-web
