Re[2]: Tomcat 4.0.3 & getResourceAsStream

2002-12-02 Thread Jacob Kjome
Hello Esteban,

It won't work with p.getClass... unless the resource you are trying to
load is in the classpath...meaning it must be within WEB-INF/classes
or WEB-INF/lib/somejar.jar and you wouldn't reference "WEB-INF".  The
classloader knows absolutely nothing about it.

If your resoruce was in the root of WEB-INF/classes (root of the
current classloader... also equivalent to putting the resource in a jar file, but
not inside a package in that jar file), the following will work:
p.getClass.getResourceAsStream("/myResource.properties");

This will work if your resource is located relative to the current
class "p" (same package as the class).
p.getClass.getResourceAsStream("myResource.properties");

This will work to find the resource anywhere in the current
classloader (make sure not to prefix with "/"):
p.getClass.getClassLoader.getResourceAsStream("myResource.properties");

This will work to find the resource even if it isn't in the same
classloader.  For instance, maybe it is in a parent classloader or a
child classloader relative to the current classloader (make sure not
to prefix with "/"):
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("myResource.properties");

This will work to find the the resource using the servlet context and
fulfill your requirement to put all properties in WEB-INF/conf:
theServletConfig.getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/conf/myResource.properties");


For your purposes, you need the last one.  None of the others will
work unless your resource is in the classloader which WEB-INF/conf
isn't.

Hi Esteban

I think if WEB-INF/classes works, any other directory there will
work too.

Re: Tomcat 4.0.3 & getResourceAsStream

Thanks for your help andreas.

It didn´t work with p.getClass..

i´m trying with getServletContext().

But my idea is to have WEB-INF/conf   to place all .properties files.

is that possible?...

Best regards,
Esteban

Hi Esteban,

try

p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/icard.properties");
(inside WEB-INF)
or
p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-
INF/classes/icard.properties");
(inside classes)
or
p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-
INF/lib/icard.properties");
(inside lib)

If this doesn't work, try
getServletContext().getResourceAsStream(...)
This one will work.

Good luck.

Hi Esteban,

try

p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/icard.properties");
(inside WEB-INF)
or
p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-
INF/classes/icard.properties");
(inside classes)
or
p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-
INF/lib/icard.properties");
(inside lib)

If this doesn't work, try
getServletContext().getResourceAsStream(...)
This one will work.

Good luck.

Tomcat 4.0.3 & getResourceAsStream

2002-12-02 Thread Esteban González
Hi!
I´ve just moved an old app that we had running using Jserv to tomcat4.0.3

But i have problems with this
p = new Properties();
InputStream is = p.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/icard.properties");
I keep getting null no matter where i put the icard.properties file.

i´ve placed icard.properties inside WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes and it´s
also on the classpath...

any workarounds to this issue?...  I´m trying not to use the java.io.*
approach...
