Hi, Is there any way of getting the real path of another context, that isn't a war?
In my environment we have our different applications say x, y and z, and they are deployed as wars on the server. And I created a data context in the webapps directory so that all of the other contexts could store their uploaded and temp files there. So I want to get a real path to the data directory, while I was developing it I was using getServletContext().getRealPath("/") and inserting /data in the returned String so that application x would get a real path to the data directory e.g. /usr/tomcat/webapps/data/x, but this returns null when its deployed as a war, so I was wondering how to get around this. Has anyone come across this problem before or have suggestions on how to workaround it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running tomcat4.1.12 on jdk1.3.1.
