Is it possible for a servlet to list and read a directory content
outside its context.
For example, I want my servlet to check a directory content every 5
minutes. It should list the files, open then , read its contents and do
something. Is it possible to do it with a directory outside TOMCAT's scope
(I mean, that is not listed in the server.xml file) ?
I guess I cant use the getContext() method, because the directory is
"strange" to TOMCAT.
Any help would be appreciated ....
bye
