getServletContext().getRealPath problem

Dear all,

I have the following servlet, but when I call getServletContext().getRealPath("/WEB-INF/data/data.txt"), it always return null. I am using Tomcat 4.0 to deploy my web application. I've also tried to use getServletContext().getRealPath("index.html"), which also returns null. Any one has an idea for this?

publicclass ServletTestextends HttpServlet{

private String fileName ;

publicvoid init()throws UnavailableException{

this.fileName = getServletContext().getRealPath(

"/WEB-INF/data/data.txt");

}

protectedvoid doGet(HttpServletRequest request,

HttpServletResponse response)

throws IOException, ServletException

{

response.setContentType("text/html");

System.out.println("fileName" + this.fileName);

}

}

Many thanks!
