Hi there,
I have one problem... We have to execute external Java process from JAR archive
included in our web application directory. The problem is, that all system
dependant functions are relative to tomcat home directory. And - when our
application is deployed outside tomcat directory via server.xml context
definition - we cannot find a way to get path to our web directory...
I am not sure if I am expressing myself clear, so example...
I have web app with structure:
someDir/web:
WEB-INF
META-INF
dirWithArchive
externalProgram.jar
...
which is deployed OUTSIDE tomcat. I need to execute such code:
Process = new ProcessBuilder("java -jar
some/path/to/someDir/web/dirWithArchive/externalProgram.jar".split("\\s+").start();
from within struts action or struts plugin. HOW can I find a path without
specifying it manualy (it's problematic because of different environments we
deploy our application to).
TIA
