Not sure exactly which path the OP wants, but look also at the
ContextPath module:
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/apidocs/org/apache/cocoon/components/
modules/input/ContextPathModule.html
ContextPathModule provides a real filesystem path for a virtual
context-relative path. If this mapping cannot be performed (e.g.
Cocoon is running in a .war file), null will be returned. Compared
to the RealPathModule this module is able to provide the "real"
absolute path even if the application is mounted outside the webapp
tree of Cocoon.
Note: the primary use for this is to support external code that
wants a filesystem path. For example, The FOP 0.20.x serializer
doesn't like relative image paths, and doesn't understand Cocoon
URLs (context:, cocoon: etc). So we pass the *2fo.xsl stylesheet a
real filesystem path to where we keep our images:
A absolute path argument like {contextpath:/resources} will be
resolved from the root context path (ie. COCOON_HOME/build/webapp)
whereas a relative path attribute like {contextpath:./resources}
will be resolved from the location of the sitemap that uses it. If
that sitemap is mounted outside the usual COCOON_HOME/build/webapp
the path resolved with this modules points to the correct location.
So, for example, if I add a line for {realpath:./sitemap.xmap} to
the cocoon samples sitemap for the
realpath module, I get:
./sitemap.xmap /usr/local/java/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/webapps/cocoon/./
sitemap.xmap
which points to the root cocoon sitemap. If I change that to
{contextpath:./sitemap.xmap},
I get the sitemap for the current request:
./sitemap.xmap /usr/local/java/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/webapps/cocoon/
samples/modules/./sitemap.xmap
So if you want to pass the path for a work or temp directory that is
in your project,
use contextpath: -- it will work even if your project is mounted
outside of cocoon.
[ Without getting into the history of how these things grew, I'm not
sure why there should
even be two different modules here. And the naming makes it even
more confusing, since
you expect that something called RealPathModule would actually
give you a "real" path! ]

hello together,
i have a question about getting path in javaflow or flowscript.
i produce many documents in cocoonApplication i will save it in
any filesystem. i have the relativ from filesystem
is a possible to get any Context from tomcat server.xml like
<Context path"/name" docbas="z:/.../name" ..>
in cocoonApplication?
