Where to place XML Schemas in Tomcat?
Hi,
I need to read .xsd (schemas) for xerces validation under tomcat. How do
I get tomcat to look for them in a directory like WEB-INF/schemas ?
Currently, tomcat is looking for them in the root of the main drive (under
windows 2K professional).
Thanks for your help - edwardJones

Try,
InputStream is =
getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/Schemas/MySchema.xml");
This will work whether the webapp is deployed as a directory on the file
system or as a .war file.

Yes, that seems to be the case. The problem is that I'm validating
arbitrary xml files using namespaces, and the schema locations specified
in those files are relative to the application directory. In other
words, xerces is expecting to find them in the same directory as the
class file, which does not work with tomcat.
I was hoping that I could use either server.xml or web.xml entries to
point to the location of these files. What is the "best" documentation
(most complete) for those files?
Thanks - edwardJones

I'm not positive, but I was under the impression that you cannot see
inside the WEB-INF folder.
I would just create a new folder in the root of your app and reference
them absolutely "/Schemas"
