I was just looking at the struts-upload application... why is the file uploaded to %TOMCAT_HOME%/bin ?
What i would like to do is to save the uploaded file in a subdirectory of the root of the application (%TOMCAT_HOME%/webapps/myapp/uploaddir). The saving location is determined on a the "file category" chosen in the file upload form.
Another thing I don't know is, how I can retrieve the base path of my web application.
I tried something like this:
String savingLocation = new String(
request.getContextPath()
+ "/data/"
+ category.getPath() + "/"
+ fileName);
Then I create a File with this path as in:
File tempFile = new File(savePath);If i read the absolute path of the tempFile: String absPath = tempFile.getAbsolutePath();
i get the following: C:\myapp\data\tests\uploadedFile.txt where - myapp is the name of the application - tests is the path name for this category supplied in the form - uploadedFile.txt is the uploaded file :-)
Any tips, suggestions and examples would be highly appreciated.
Thanks, Patrick
