It depends... if your application is a web application, it can be packaged
as a war, or an expanded war, be deployed in a web container, or embed its
own web container. That's a lot of different cases, so there is no single
answer to your question. The best is to keep things either in your classpath
and access them as resources (using Class#getResource(String) or
Class#getResourceAsStream(String)) or in your webapp (in WEB-INF for
instance) and access them using ServletContext#getResource(String) or
ServletContext#getResourceAsStream(String). Then you don't need to actually
know where your app is deployed and how. If you are sure your webapp will be
deployed expanded, you can still try to figure out your project path out the
URL returned by ServletContext#getResource(String). But it will make your
webapp very dependent on how it's deployed, which is usually not a very good
idea.
