Getting the Page URI from Custom JSP Tag

[John Topley]

Hi,

I'm developing a custom JSP tag library. How do I get the full URI of
the page that is using the taglib?

Thanks,

John

HttpUtils.getRequestURL( (HttpServletRequest) pageContext.getRequest());

Depends on what you want it for. Note that JSPs are compiled into servlets,
and the container may move them to another location, so if you're looking to
load a file that's in the "same directory" or something, don't use this
method.

That said...

Servlet Class
javax.servlet.HttpServletRequest

getRequestURI() Gets the URI to the current JSP page.

HttpUtils.getRequestURL( (HttpServletRequest) pageContext.getRequest());

Oops! Javadocs say that's a StringBuffer so add .toString() to the end.
