This is a question of implementation and best practices. I instantiate Class A inside my
servlet, which in turn instantiates Class B. The problem is that Class B needs to load xslt stylesheets from WEB-INF/xslt. What is the best way for Class B to know where to load the sheets from? Right now I'm using context.getRealPath("/") within the servlet and then passing the path into Class A and subsequently Class B. Is there a better way to do this? Should I pass the context around instead?
I don't have this problem with my properties files, which are in the classes directory, where I can use getClass().getResourceAsStream("fileName"). I don't think this works outside the classes directory, however.
Thanks in advance.
