Re: userconfig.xml
Revelation: Now I know why System.getProperties("user.dir") == "c:\windows\system32", because that's where the Tomcat NT service must start from (not to mention the java.exe that's in that folder also). Hmm, what to do? Ok, so how can I have a not so relative path? Conundrum: How can I gain access to configuration info that resides in the web.xml file for the SOAP servlet that calls my class, that in turn calls FOP? -- David B.

Re: userconfig.xml
Yeah. If I try File file = new File("userconfig.xml"), where is it looking relative to the class file requesting the file? -- David B.

Re: userconfig.xml
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. -- David B. Bitton [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.codenoevil.com Diversa ab illis virtute valemus. - Original Message - From: "Peter B.

Re: userconfig.xml
Polly, You are not the first, nor will you be the last, to be thrown by this. All of the work of the Options object is done in the constructor. You don't have to do anything more with it. It sets up a lot of static data, accessible by static methods, in a Configuration class. Have a look at org.apache.fop.configuration.Configuration for the access methods. Look at the example config.xml and userconfig.xml in xml-fop/conf to see what sort of data is stored in there. Hmm This seems to crop up a bit. Maybe something like a static Options.configure() would be less confusing for an essentially static operation.
