RE: [flexcoders] Obtaining context root programmatically?

[Matt Chotin]

@ContextRoot() will get it embedded, might be easiest just to put that in your Application and have your AS classes pull Application.application.yourContextRootVarDeclaredOnApplication.  Otherwise you could attempt to figure out the context root simply by taking the value between the first and second slash after the domain.  Most webapps get installed under the domain root as opposed to deeper in the path.  Obviously this depends on your setups and if giving a WAR to a customer you can’t rely on it.  But if you’re in control…   Matt   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of sbyrne_dorado Sent: Saturday, June 11, 2005 9:24 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Obtaining context root programmatically?   Is there any way within an AS file to find out the current context root?  I have discovered that if I use the <mx:String> element, that the MXML translator will correctly replace @ContextRoot() with the current context root, which is fine, but I am wondering if there is a less hacky way to obtain this information from just ActionScript?
