With a WOImage, WOActiveImage, and several other WO Controls you can specify a framework that your image file is loaded from and then the image name. When you use this methodology you do not need to specify a path for an image resource. For webserverresources, for css or other, you can put in a virtual link to WEB-INF/appname.app/Contents/ WebServerresources/mycss.css. I may not be understanding how you are wanting to access your resources.

To serve images and CSS files through tomcat, you can put your images and files in the ROOT webapp under the WEBAPPS directory, I place my images in a directory named images. If you are using the JK connector you put them on your webserver in the root directory and images directory .


one of the difficulties in the current project is, that I can only upload/provide a WAR ;-) I don't have any direct access to anything else and also want to keep the installation procedure as much simple as possible.


My idea would be to validate the wodata path against something like WEBINFOROOT/MyApp.woa/Contents/WebServerResources (or better but less secure to catch all frameworks) - path must contain "WebServerResources"...

Much better would be to additionally encrypt the string to hide the physical directory completely.
