Hi, In Turbine I wanted to provide an easy way to give all classes in a webapp easy access to the real path to the webapp: someone on the Turbine list mentioned that ServletContext.getRealPath(path) is not required to be implemented. If this is the case what is the best way to provide access to the webapp path. In my particular case I am uploading files into a directory in the webapp, so I need to create files. Craig, do you have some standard of providing access to the webapp in Struts? Maybe I can borrow your idea if you're implementing something like this. Thanks. jvz.
