Hi,
(I sent this to "bugs" a while ago - but no response so far...)
According to the java documentation, the method
javax.servlet.ServletContext.getRealPath(String s):
>Returns a String containing the real path for a given virtual path. For
>example, the virtual path "/index.html" has a real path
> of whatever file on the server's filesystem would be served by a
>request for "/index.html".
If I write
<%= application.getRealPath("/index.html") %>
from a jsp in a web-app that is rooted at
C:\orion\applications\foo\foo-web
I obtain the result
C:\orion\applications\foo\foo-web\index.html
whereas I think I should obtain the result
C:\orion\default-web-app\index.html
So it looks as if the path is being interpreted relative to the web-app,
although the documentation makes it fairly clear that this should not be
the case.
Thanks,
Nick
