What folder is eclipse looking at? [message #199708]

I am trying to run a program that looks for a file and then deletes it
(the file is specified as a program argument). Where do I put the file
I'm trying to delete? It doesn't seem to be looking where my source and
class files are, or anywhere up the path of my package (examples.io) to
the root workspace folder, or in C:\Sun\SDK\jdk\bin or C:\Sun\SDK\jdk\..

What path or setting tells it where to look for this?

If you're running it from within Eclipse, click Run -> Run ..., select
the Arguments tab, and see what's set in the Working directory section.
The default should be to start in the project directory.
