Right now I only have a couple configuration files, so I put them under
WEB-INF/conf.  If you have alot of random, temporary files I think your idea
of using a /tmp folder is great.  Just stick it under WEB-INF.

Thanks,

That worked really well..  How do you organize your web-inf directory?  I am
worried about it becoming really junky with lots of random files...

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).

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
