How do I get web application context path?

How do I get web application context path?


Posted by Wayan Saryada on May 3, 2008

The context path always comes first in a request URI. The path starts with a / character but does not end with a / character. When I have a web application with the URL like http://localhost:8080/myapps then myapps is the context path. For servlets in the default (root) context, this method returns .

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

package org.kodejava.example.servlet; import import import import import import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet; javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse; javax.servlet.ServletException; java.io.IOException; java.io.PrintWriter;

Register your servlet in the web.xml file and map it to the ctxpath as the url-pattern. Let say youve deployed your servlet into a web application named webapp then you can access your servlet using the following url: http://localhost:8080/webapp/ctxpath. Youll get the following information in your browser:

1 Context Path: /webapp
