Can I get runtime information on which directories are in the classpath? - Fencer

I don't think the project root is in the classpath. The normal wasy to make a resource available is 1. Put it below WEB-INF/classes, e.g. a resource named a/b/c.xml would go at WEB-INF/classes/a/b/c.xml 2. Put it into a jar file, and put the jar file into WEB-INF/lib

That you need to call a method on a completely different class is a critical bit of information to omit. And it remains true that the project root is not in the classpath.

In this context, does "three types" mean those "getResource*" methods found in java.lang, java.beans.beancontext, and javax.servlet? -- John B.
