[fingertiploneliness]

I have an application deployed on the jboss server.
in the *.war file,i create a folder named images for saving user uploaded pictures,but when test it,the user uploaded pic add to a temp folder in somewhere in the jboss work directory,not add into the *.war file.the next time the jboss started,uploaded pic all disappear.can i add files into the deployed .*.war files? or a solution to this kind of problem?

(using windows 2000)
now ,i have to create a image.war folder under the jboss's deply folder to save the uploaded files. but do it this way, I must hard code the position where to hold the uploaded files into the jsp or servlet!!!

There are at leaast 3 workarounds which work for me so upload directory is independent of jboss installation directory:
a) Set the upload directory in a properties file,
b) use a symbolic link in your file system, or
c) store the files in a database.

You can always inspect the apache file upload package for examples.
