I apologized for posting the question but I have seen over servlet api
questions posted.
Here is the solution that I implemented. I was looking for the context path
in the init method of a servlet.
public class MyServlet extends HttpServlet {
:
public void init(ServletConfig config) {
super.init(config);
// get context path for this servlet
try {
s_contextPath =
config.getServletContext().getResource("/").getPath();
if ( s_contextPath.equals("/") ) s_contextPath = "";
}
:
}
