I found this in the archives (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com ). You might
search them for more info if this doesn't work. If you put the file in your
servlet's classpath, this code, which in this case is accessing a properties
file, should allow you to access the file.
-----------------
InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("myapp.properties");
Properties p = new Properties();
try
{
p.load(is);
}
catch ( java.io.IOException e )
{
// Can't load props file

Subject: Servlets and relative paths
I've got a servlet and am trying to open files. The problem is that its
defaulting to the tomcat/bin directory whenever I attempt to refer to
them. How can I change this? Hardcoding the path isn't such a good
idea as my dev environment is different from production. These are xml
and xsl files and they are located on the webroot.
Thanks,
Chris
