Java Development Tools

Hi,

I used this code to initialize my LOG4J logger.

        System.out.println(Version + "Servlet context path : " + sctx .getContextPath());
        String path = sctx .getRealPath("/");
        fullyqualifiedlog4jpath = path + "log4j.xml";
        File locallogxml = new File(fullyqualifiedlog4jpath);
        if (locallogxml.exists()) {
            initialized = true;
            DOMConfigurator.configure(fullyqualifiedlog4jpath);
            log = Logger.getLogger(Log4j.class.getName());
            log.info(Version + "Logger initialized");
        }
        else {
            System.out.println(Version + "Unable to locate the log4j.xml file");
        }

It works perfectly when running the application with the embedded Jdev11 WLS.

When deploying the application on a standalone WLS server the path is not returned ;-( I get a null value.

Does someone has three lines of code which get the physical path of my web app root context?
