Filepath in war

I created sigleton ApplicationConfig for settigs, that reads xml config file. But every time it fails on path to file.

hierarchy:

META-INF
src
--application
----config.xml
--engine
----ApplicationConfig
web
--WEB-INF
----web.xml

I've tried File f = new File("../application/config.xml"); but it gives C:\WebLogic\application\config.xml

It's usually a bad idea to store your configs in 'src'. It's better to separate your code and configuration. I suggest you to read about maven (or gradle). Basic maven app has pretty simple structure:

src    
--main
----java
----resources

where in 'java' folder you store your code, and in the 'resource' folder you store your configs. And now you have problem, because jvm is trying to find your file relatively WebLogic base folder.

And if you use maven, you could just write:

ApplicationConfig.class.getResourceAsStream("/config.xml")

Of course, in this case you should put your config into 'resources' folder.
