Jar file generation

[Xinsheng Chen]

I am generating a jar file for my portlet development. I need to read a text file for data. I can hard-code the absolute path of the file on my laptop and the code runs fine. But the jar will eventually be deployed onto the application server. How could I specify the path of the text file so that my jar file will work on both my laptop and the application server?

Could a resource reference in the web module do the trick for you?

Hi,

In Liferay, we can refer any contents as

/package-name/path/filename

in Tomcat /webapps/...

This helps.

Thank you, Jonas!
