Try ServletContext.getRealPath(). You should be able to get the
ServletContext object from the RunData instance.
ServletContext.getRealPath("Resources/tmp/your.xml")
would return (I think as a java.net.url):
/TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/myapp/Resources/tmp/your.xml
I use this all the time to get conf information from the WEB-INF directory
(IMOHO, I feel it is better to stick configuration info in WEB-INF because
it is secured from browsing by default).

Subject: How do I get the absolute file to something in the Resources
dire ctory?
Hi all,
I want to store some configuration information and temp data about my
application in some XML files.. I was going to put them in
\webapps\myapp\Resources\tmp\*.xml
However, I can't figure out how, from inside turbine, to get that path? I
thought I could use the contentURI object to tell me, but it gives me a
website relative url, not a filesystem url..
The reason I don't want to use the TurbineResourcesService to store my data
is that some of it is application specific data, and some may be very
changable.
Any ideas?
Eric
