The servlet API doesn't have anything in it that doesn't have to do with 
serving dynamic requests. I'm not sure what you were looking for.

the server.

Not necessarily. You can still use Tomcat. You just need to (as many others on 
the list have asked about and ultimately implemented) write a servlet that can 
serve your uploaded content for you. 

#I did.

Just upload the files into some other directory, and then have your servlet 
read them out of that directory. Feel free to use additional paths, etc. 
(meaning that you don't need to put every single file in a flat directory).

#That will not work with the other API I have to use... 

You should be able to change your "other API" to use a URL that does a 
loop-back request to Tomcat asking for the files, rather than a URL that points 
to a file on the disk.


#Here comes the point, the other API reads only files I want to use from a 
WebApp folder and it's subfolder in it.

#I think I am going to use an other program like a extracter (e.g. 7zip  or 
something....) to add files to the deployed .war archive file,
So I get the data files into it at runtime and have the ability to read them 
later from the specific webapp path.


#Thanks very much!
