Thanks,
I've submitted a bug and uploaded a .war file that demonstrates the behavior.

I added a testcase to the web integration unit tests and the call to
getServletContext().getRealPath("/") works correctly there. Post
an ear or war that demonstrates the null return value as an attachement
to a bug at sourceforge.

Subject: [JBoss-dev] inconsistent behavior: jboss/tomcat 2.4.6 &
jboss/tomcat 3.0
I am seeing some inconsistent behavior that is proving problematic for me
between Jboss 2.4.6 with Tomcat 4.0.3 and Jboss 3.0.0 with Tomcat 4.0.3.
In particular, in our web tier we need to load additional configuration
files at startup time, that is, additional XML files are read and processed.
The way we get the location of the XML files is by using the
servletContext.getRealPath method. In Jboss 2.4.6/Tomcat 4.0.3 this works
fine. In Jboss 3.0.0/Tomcat 4.0.3 real path always returns null. For
example, I have a servlet that loads at startup time with the following:
CODE IN JBOSS 2.4.6/TOMCAT 4.0.3:
System.err.println ("REAL PATH == "+getServletContext().getRealPath("/"));
OUTPUT IN JBOSS 2.4.6/TOMCAT 4.0.3:
REAL PATH ==
C:\JBoss-2.4.6_Tomcat-4.0.3\jboss\tmp\deploy\Default\my.war\web1004\
CODE IN JBOSS 3.0.0/TOMCAT 4.0.3:
System.err.println ("REAL PATH == "+getServletContext().getRealPath("/"));
OUTPUT IN JBOSS 3.0.0/TOMCAT 4.0.3:
23:55:50,359 ERROR [STDERR] REAL PATH == null
Does anyone have any suggestions or work around ideas?
Thanks,
-Jeff
