It's path stuff, again. I'm looking over the instructions for
Servlets 4b, and it mentions that certain files are to be put in com.javaranch.drive.videos, so I try to extract one of them using WinZip to the appropriate file, and I end up with a duplication in the file structure. I guess when the files were zipped, their location was specified so that when they got unzipped the directory structure would be created automatically. So I
think I have them in the right spot.
Now, there is another class called PathFinder, that deals with finding the absolute path rather than the relative path. After reading through it a few times, I just don't follow. Is there some tutorial that anyone knows of that can help me get past this block I have when it comes to understanding paths and the notation used to specify them? What frustrates me is that I just
know this stuff is simple, but I can't seem to grasp it.
I'm quoting from the documentation in PathFinder.java:
The JSP's are at the root of the com tree. There is a clue in there somewhere, but I can't find the com tree. I don't even know what kind of leaves a com tree has!
