Won't that only work for WAS 3.5, and on an iSeries?

For example, with WAS 4, the folder is 
/QIBM/ProdData/WebASAdv4/properties/com/ibm/websphere/product.xml

At that point, it seems like you might as well just have your own
properties file where you tell it the WAS version.

I am surprised that there is not some global property you can access with
either this information, or the <WASROOT> folder so that you can then
access the correct XML file.

If your servlet has access, it can read
/QIBM/ProdData/WebASAdv/properties/com/ibm/websphere/product.xml to
determine the WAS level.

Is anyone aware if there is a way to retrieve the WAS version in a
servlet.
I have two WAS, one is 3.5.6 and one is still 3.5.0.  I have several
applications that use Servlet 2.2 and JSP1.1 functionality but these are
not
supported in 3.5.0.  I would like to condition these based on the WAS
version.

Any suggests on how I could retrieve this would be helpful.

Thanks
