Convert a mapping to a full path

2007-07-27 Thread marc -- 
Hi,
Is it possible to take a CFMX mapping (say /external to 
c:/datafiles/word/external) and use this in the cfile action=read 
file=fullPath tag? The mapping should be converted to a full path but since 
CFMX already knows this, it should be possible right?

Thanks

Put this in your application.cfm in your / directory:
CFSET application.webRootDir = 
getDirectoryFromPath(applicationTemplatePath)
This will give you the physical path for your / directory.
 From there, you can get anything you need.
