Hello Nathan,
from happyaxis.jsp in the Apache Axis project....
/**
* get the location of a class
* @param out
* @param clazz
* @return the jar file or path where a class was found
*/
String getLocation(JspWriter out,
Class clazz) {
try {
java.net.URL url =
clazz.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation();
String location = url.toString();
if(location.startsWith("jar")) {
url =
((java.net.JarURLConnection)url.openConnection()).getJarFileURL();
location = url.toString();
}
if(location.startsWith("file")) {
java.io.File file = new java.io.File(url.getFile());
return file.getAbsolutePath();
} else {
return url.toString();
}
} catch (Throwable t){
}
return null;
}
Hope that helps!
Jake
