[opencms-dev] Reading File in system folder

[Frans Postma]

Hi,

It bugged me that ".." should work and usually does for me, so I looked it up :)
Seems readFile does expect fully specified VFS-filenames indeed. So in order to use relative links (which I usually prefer due to
being flexible), you should be able to do this:

CmsJspActionElement cms = new CmsJSPActionElement(pageContext, request, response);
CmsFile default_body = 
	cms.getCmsObject().readFile(cms.link("../default_bodies/my_default_body"));
