In the context of a servlet, where would I place userconfig.xml file
relative to the webapps dir, and what path would I use to retrieve the file.
According to java.io API JavaDoc file, a relative path is relative to the
user's home dir.  Would I actually have to say:

File file = new File("c:\tomcat4\webapps\soap\WEB-INF\userconfig.xml")

or something like:

File file = new File("userconfig.xml")

Any ideas?  I need the config file because it has font info in it.
