You can specify the location in the config file.

Oh wait, never mind.

Other alternatives are specifying it as init-param's (either servlet
or context) in web.xml. Still somewhat hard-coded, but not as bad as
putting it in the servlet code itself. A bit of a bootstrapping issue
here.

Also, I think I saw something here recently about being to specify
certain init-param's in server.xml, not sure of the details, maybe
that's a possibility.
