Hi,
I have an app that allows users to upload images to a the server.
Where should I place the images directory? If I use a directory outside of the webapps directory , I can’t use relative urls to show the images in jsp pages. If I use a directory under the webapps directory, it is destroyed with each rebuild of the app.
Maybe I could prevent the images folder being deleted during rebuilds? But how?
Thanks,
John Pedersen
John,

The deployer will always deploy the entire application, as is in your development environment. There isn’t a facility to merge with what’s already on the server, if that’s what you’re asking. About the only workaround I see creating your image directory as another simple webapp on the same server and then using a full redirect to that directory, rather than a project relative URL.
