Hi
I think u can try getContextPath() which will give u the root of ur web application
.To get access to resources inside WAR or other archive files u can use the method
getResource(String URIPath);
If the context is in a different m/c u can use getContext() to get the context first
and then use either getResource() or getResourceAsStream() methods

Hi,
how can I get the location from the webapps-directory on my filesystem?
It's easy, if I use
String path = getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
and then cut off the last part:
int index = path.lastIndexOf(System.getProperty("file.separator"),
path.length()-2 );
path = path.substring(0, index);
But this works only, if you have your webapplication unpacked in the
file-system or if you have set unpackWars=true.
Now, I have set unpackWars=false, and now I get null for
getServletContext().getRealPath("/").
Is there any possibility to get the name of the war-File an application is
stored in or the name of the directory the war-file is stored in?
Thanks,
Frank
