I am developing jasper report. So i have created abc.jasper file by using iReport. Then i have put it into /WEB-INF/reports/ . Then I have loaded abc.jasper file as below. but it doesn't work.


if I put Exact path intesed of Relative path above code is working fine. So Can any one suggest me how to load abc.jasper file by giving relative path?

Thanks in advance

If you are putting this into WEB-INF then perhaps you are going to deploy this as part of a war file?
If so then you could put the .jasper files on the classpath and use Class.getResourceAsStream to load them as resources.

Or simply use ServletContext's getResourceAsStream method. This allows you a little more flexibility about where inside the web application you put the resource without having to set any class paths.
