In the Servlet init() method you can call a method called getRealPath() This will return the name of the directory where your webapp is deployed. You may need to store this is a system property or a static classs for future use as it's only availalble on startup.
Donie -----Original Message----- From: Allan Bruce [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 January 2004 13:08 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: default directory for files in tomcat I have an applet which requires a .ini file to be loaded up. This file is only found if I am in the directory containing it when I startup tomcat. Is there a default location for files, or is there a config for this? I tried placing them in a few places but none worked unless I started tomcat from within that directory.
