Let's say I have this structure of my Java Web Application:

TheProject
  -- [Web Pages]
  -- -- abc.txt
  -- -- index.jsp
  -- [Source Packages]
  -- -- [wservices]
  -- -- -- WS.java

WS.java is my Web Service, which is situated in a wservices package. Now from this service, I need to access the abc.txt file and write to it.

These are my urls:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/TheProject/WS  <- the webservice
http://127.0.0.1:8080/TheProject/abc.txt <- the file I want to access

To read the file, I tried with getResourceAsStream and I was successful in reading from it. But now I also want to write to this file, and I tried such a method but failed.

Is there a way I can get access to the abc.txt file from WS.java and be able to successfully read from and write to it?
