Hi GWT experts,

I need some help in deploying my GWT web application on Tomcat web
server.

I have been developing a web application using GWT (Google Web
Toolkit) with Eclipse.
In my src folder (not in a specific GWT module, but in a server-side
package), I created a class that implements ServletContextListener and
in the contextInitialized method, I am reading a file
(setup.properties) that contains setup parameters, like the
datasource, host, and port, etc.
I put this properties file in MyProject/resources/setup.properties.
And the src folder is directly under MyProject.
To read the file, I used a relative file path as such: "resources/
setup.properties"

In development mode, I was running the application from the GWT hosted
web browser. The file was being read correctly.
However, when I export the war file from eclipse and deploy it in
Tomcat, the resources folder is not being included and thus the file
is not being read.
So, I manually put the resources folder in the Tomcat6.0 folder and it
worked.
However, I do not want to put the resources folder there. I want it to
be relative to the project itself. So, I want to put it somewhere
inside the webapps/MyProject folder. However, I keep getting file not
found. T

How can I make the relative path work?
What am I missing? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Nicole
