i have the opportunity, an unrelated question (which may stem from my conception of contexts as isolated applications): in servlets, is it possible (or even desirable) to have paths interpreted relative to the context root?
eg, using the example above, when i reference a cheetah template i have to do something like this:
template = Template(file="inventory/stock-levels.tmpl")
this feels awkward to me - again, perhaps because i think that the context is the application root, and therefore the application shouldn't have to know the name of the directory that its files are in.
for this specific task you may want to experiment with Application.serverSidePath (resolves relative paths from the *application* root), Page.serverSidePath (resolves relative paths from the current servlet), Request.serverSideContextPath and Request.contextName.
