best way to manage images on jsp web application

843840Aug 31 2007 — edited Sep 1 2007
Hi,

Am developing a jsp web application, in that project, the user will upload the image files, now I created an image directory in the context root and when the image is uploaded by the user it is saved in the /images directory and the image path is saved in the database. I can display this image using the <img src="images/a.jsp" > tag.

but when I rebuild the project all the images in the /images directory get deleated but the image path is remained in the database, is there any method that I make /image dir outside my project context root so that when I rebuild the project the /images dir can get changed and my project will save images outside the context root that is in the /images dir which is now outside the project context root. and is it possible to display those images using <img src""> tag. because this time my /images dir is at D:/images . what could be the best method or way to handle images with the web application.

any suggestion will be helpfull
