Hi Emerson,
Thank you for your help. But I don't understand why I do I have to write Java
code to transmit the file. Shouldn't Tomcat already has this capability. For
example, when we press a link that references to a image said
http://hostName:portNumber/ImageFile/myImage.jpeg from a browser, then image is
render by the web container to the browser so that the user on the other end can
see it. I thought all I have to do is to create a context for this purpose.
Where the context path for this web component points to the directory at /audio
instead of a directory under the webapps.
Thanks,
Kam
