save file on server, java web application

Viewed 20722

from my web application (vaadin) I generate XML files and want to store these files on the server. I did:

context.getHttpSession().getServletContext().getRealPath("/");

I run the web app on tomcat and managed to save the file to the app folder under

.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp0/wtpwebapps/my_app_folder/

on the same level with META-INF, WEB-INF and VAADIN folder. If I want to save the file on server storage and save the path of the file on the database, where should I save the files? Thank you
