get_image_path function

Related topics

Contained in package wwctx_api.

Call this function to return the path to an image file. If no image file name is provided, this function returns the path to the directory where the images are.

Notes:

An images directory, installed during Oracle Portal installation, resides on a file system accessible from Oracle Portal listener. Within Oracle Portal, this directory is referred to by a virtual path. The get_image_path function returns this path to the calling procedure.

If the location of an image is unknown, but a portlet should display that image, then a call similar to wwctx_api.get_image_path('hello.gif') returns the qualified path: /images/hello.gif.

Alternatively, calling wwctx_api.get_image_path without an argument would return the virtual path: /images/.
