Re: [m2e-users] Dev build of m2e-wtp 0.13.1 available for testing
|
ServletContext.getRealPath(String) is generally not portable and not
reliable method of accessing the contents of the web application. For
example when running from a non-expanded war this method returns null
for all paths. On the other hand, ServletContext.getResource(String)
should work irregardless of particular application server and deployment
method.

I have a serious problem with it. An existing web application of mine
uses code like this to access some files in the WEB-INF directory (WAR
is always deployed exploded):
File webInfDir = servlet.getServletContext().getRealPath("WEB-INF");
With the old m2e-wtp getRealpath returned the web root directory from
the eclipse project where the real files are located. But now it returns
the target/m2e-wtp/web-resources directory which is always empty. So my
web project can't access the files in the web root.
Is there a known workaround? If not then I have to add some java code to
the web project so it detects the m2e-wtp deployment and auto-corrects
the path.
