Example 40 static file

[kevin plummer]

Hi all,

I'm trying to work out how to serve up a static file (pdf) from a location outside the web folder. This example shows serving up some files from the app folder so no drive or path is needed.

what you I do to read a file  d:\mydocs\test.pdf when the app is running in c:\mywebserver ?

Cheers,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Set loc:filename there to anything you like. I tried it with
loc:filename = 'c:\temp\a.pdf'
and it's fine.

ie, loc:filename should include the name & path if a path is necessary.

Cheers
