How do I programmatically find the DocBase of my webapp?
Hello all, Quick question here (I hope). Inside of my web application, I want to find the full, absolute file path to this application's doc base. How do I do this? Basically, I want to ensure that files X, Y and Z exist before my application starts to respond to requests.

Hi, Why don't people ever search the archives before posting? At least that's how it seems ;) Use ServletContext#getRealPath(/) if running unpacked, which I bet is your use case.

Thanks Yoav. In my defense, I did perform a search. However, NOT in my defense, my search was a little week: do you know how many hits you get when searching the archives for 'docbase'? Not a good word to limit by. ;-) -- Jay Glanville Software Engineer -Original Message- From: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 03, 2004 2:07 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: How do I programmatically find the DocBase of my webapp?
