Hi I have a servlet running under Tomcat 3.2 that reads and writes to a properties file created by the Properties class. If I only provide the unqualified name of the properties file in my servlet, Tomcat reads and writes the file to the %TOMCAT_HOME% directory. This is consistant with the documentation in the server.xml file. The comments go onto say that I can specify a "home" parameter that will be used to represent the base directory for all relative paths, but these comments appear in a section of server.xml that appears to be concerned with global configuration. So I'm concerned that because the "all" is unqualified that by setting this "home" parameter I will disrupt the "webapps/<contextname>/web-inf behaviour and that all my properties files will appear in the same directory
I am running a number of different contexts and I would like each properties file to appear somewhere within the directory structure for each context without having to specify the absolute path in each servlet.
