Creating output files using Java under osx

For ASSET testing I've been creating lots of output files.  There's a noticeable time delay whilst they're created - so I presume it's all working.  But, on completion I can't find the output files.

I've been probing the problem, and have just come up with the answer:
- Java is creating the files inside the Eclipse.app package - and the files are thus hidden from Spotlight and the finder.

I've got to specify the path more effectively from Java.  I'm missing out the 'root' character that indicates an absolute reference - so Eclipse is just treating it as a reference relative to Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/
