I never thought about the write implications. I am only interested in reading
the file.
to that end, I tried this and it 'works' for my needs. Of course I will
probably just put the data into the database and eliminate the need to read a
file directly.
ERXResourceManager resMgr = (ERXResourceManager)
ERXApplication.application().resourceManager();
String mapFilePath = resMgr.pathURLForResourceNamed("AllCountries.txt", null,
null).toString();
mapFilePath = mapFilePath.replace("file:/", "/");
System.out.println(" path is : " + mapFilePath);
File f = new File(mapFilePath);
I see that pathForResourceNamed is deprecated. it is recommended to use
pathURLForResourceNamed. Do I understand that I must clean up the path string
or is there a direct method that returns the path?
Thanks, Ted

In the general case, if it's a WebServerResource, you can't count on being able
to write to it because it could live on a completely different machine that is
serving your webserver static resources in a split install.

I want to read a file when my app launches:

I don't understand the path! if AllCountries.txt lives in the
WebServerResources folder, what is the path I should use to access it?
