Is there a way to get the Doc Root

[Randy Paries <ra...@unitnet.com>]

RE: what is this number -2147483646Hello,

This may be more of a JSP or Servlet question, but I am sure someone in this
group would know the answer

I have an Web application /Myapp and I have a bunch of jsps in an admin
directory. I am going to distribute this
in a generic war file.

So to access my admin index I would do something like
http://host/Appname/admin/admin.jsp

The problem is I do not know what the end user is going to call the
application(Appname). So How do I get the Document root.

I can do a path = <%= request.getRequestURI()  %> and do some substring
stuff.
<%= application.getRealPath("") %> doesn't give me what I need.  I was
hoping for an application.getPath("")

Thanks for any Suggestions..

Randy

  -2147483646 is Integer.MIN_VALUE
  With this value, this servlet is loaded first (the less load-on-startup
value is, earlier the servlet is loaded)
