Question

I’m trying to check if a file under WEB-INF/view file.
I am using Spring and JSP 2.0 currently, and trying to make a forum theme.
In a custom tag, I am trying to check if the jsp file exists inside the directory, but I can’t get it working…

File file = new File("./skin/login", "login.jsp");
login.jsp is included as /WEB-INF/view/skin/login/login.jsp

Is there anyway to check this file if it exists??

Answer 1

Use ServletContext.getRealPath() method to construct absolute path from virtual path.

String realPath=getServletContext().getRealPath("/WEB-INF/view/skin/login/login.jsp");

File file = new File(realPath);

if(file.exists()) {
   //
}
