            HttpServletResponse response)

follow the below steps

For HttpServletResponse set the

     response.setContentType(".....") ;
     response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=\"" + s2
+ "\"")

//s2-- is file
    if required set Pragma & cache-control in header.

 name
     response.setContentLength()  //file length;

Get the output  stream of HttpServleResponse ,
     bufferedoutputstream = new BufferedOutputStream(httpservletresponse
                    .getOutputStream());

Write the content and close the stream.
