Servlet - File location

I am working with a servlet in Eclipse (Dynamic Web Project) . I have placed some image file in Web Content Folder with a sub-folder pics. Now there are images like pic1.jpg , etc.

 BufferedInputStream bin = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(new File(location)));

What location should i give in order to retrieve these files?

Try this

ServletContext ctx=getServletContext();
InputStream in = ctx.getResourceAsStream("/pics/pic1.jpg");

getResourceAsStream() requires you to start with a "/" which represents the root of the web app.
