Get the WEB-INF folder path

This is a simple example on how to get the WEB-INF directory path in a J2EE web application.

public class MyClassName{
 
  private static final String WEBINF = "WEB-INF";
 
  public String getWebInfPath(){
 
    String filePath = "";
 
    URL url = MyClassName.class.getResource("MyClassName.class");
    String className = url.getFile();
 
    filePath = className.substring(0,className.indexOf(WEBINF) + WEBINF.length());
    return filePath;
  }
 
}
