Re: relative path problem
Not sure, but perhaps can you get the relative path by calling
java.lang.system.getProperty('prop_name')
not sure what the identifier for relative path is though..

Re: relative path problem
That is my problem...how do you get the relative path (in an action class)? Could you provide or point me to some example code? OR, even an example of using 'ApplicationResources.Properties' to read in a path value would satisfy me. thanks --- Stephen Smithstone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > try using an action that gets the relative path then > pass that path to the > bean maybe > > > > On Tuesday 11 March 2003 6:52 am, bobd wrote: > > This is a rather silly problem I have been putting > off > > and now I really need to fix it... > > > > In my Struts app, bean classes are parsing and > writing > > XML files on disk.

Re: relative path problem
try using an action that gets the relative path then pass that path to the bean maybe On Tuesday 11 March 2003 6:52 am, bobd wrote: > This is a rather silly problem I have been putting off > and now I really need to fix it... > > In my Struts app, bean classes are parsing and writing > XML files on disk.
