Location of saved report output

2003-12-08 09:48

Hi,

I'm using the JasperRunManager.runReportToPdfFile( sourceFile, destinationFile, parameters, connection ) method within a webapp. However, I need to know where the destinationFile parameter is relative to. By that, I mean, if my destinationFile name were just "/Andy.pdf", then where would it be saved, with regards to my webapp? I'm trying to work out ways of saving my PDF output based on certain user criteria, and right now, it doesn't *seem* to be getting saved anywhere. Is there some sort of correct syntax for this parameter? I'm guessing it's the same as any other File name.
