Hello,
I am writing an application which needs to load font files. The font
files are deployed with other classes on the server (i.e. under the
WEB-INF/classes directory). Currently I have the reference built in
like this
//private static final String pathToWebapp =
"/var/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25/webapps/words2walls";
private static final String pathToWebapp = "C:\\Program
Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Tomcat 5.0\\webapps\\words2walls";
//private static final String pathToPackage =
"/WEB-INF/classes/com/words2walls/fonts/";
private static final String pathToPackage =
"\\WEB-INF\\classes\\com\\words2walls\\fonts\\";
and I use the above variables as follows:
File fontFile = new File (pathToWebapp+pathToPackage+filename);
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(fontFile);
font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, fis);
I tried unsuccessfully to use the class loader, but this might just be
my ineptitude. Can someone suggest a way for me to reference these
font files dynamically so that I can more easily deploy it in
different locations? Thanks!
Daniel
