I would like to have the properties for all applications in the tomcat/conf directory of tomcat so that when a new version of application is rolled out the existing properties would be used and have two questions regarding that:
1. How to get this directory? I would guess that I could start with getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRealPath() and then backtrack two directories down (webapps/application) to get the tomcat installation root and then append conf at the end but this looks like a hack. 2. What if the application is not installed in webapps directory? The above solution obviously won't work.
