David answered the critical part of your question, but I thought I'd take a crack at the rest. > That means tomcat defaultly points to bin directory "Tomcat" doesn't defaultly [sic] point to anything. The current directory of the process you used to start Tomcat when using the script happened to be Tomcat's bin directory - but that's just the way you're using the script, not a Tomcat requirement. > When i used tomcat.exe & installed tomcat in my machine & run > the program,i found that the test file i created in my code > level was in windows/system32/ directory. Because that's the default current directory for services. It's almost always a bad idea to depend on the current directory setting in a complex server environment; if you must have a file system path to something, better to use one based off a system property. In your case, the getResourceAsStream() method is much preferred, since it elinates any file system dependencies. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
