Java Development Tools

Hi

I use jdev 11.1.1.7.0

I need to get the InputStream of jasper file in my application to show report as a PDF. I do this through below codes:

ServletContext context = getContext();
InputStream inputstream = context.getResourceAsStream(repPath); //  repPath = "reports/reportName.jasper"

whereas the repPath is the folder that exist in the current application(ViewController\public_html\reports\reportName.jasper)

but I want to put all reports in a specific folder like "d:\reports", and all of applications call reports from this path.

but when I set repPath = "d://reports//reportName.jasper" , the inputstream variable in the below code is null

InputStream inputstream = context.getResourceAsStream(repPath); //  repPath = "d://reports/reportName.jasper"

I need to have a specific path for all reports, because some reports may be called from many applications, can anyone help me?
