Method Detail

getApplicationDataDirectory

public Directory getApplicationDataDirectory()

This method is defined to return the directory where the application should store its private data. In Java, there's no standard way to do exactly that so we return user.dir, which is the working directory (the current directory) when the process was started.

Specified by:

getApplicationDataDirectory in class Paths

Returns:

the directory where the application should store its private data

getFileSystemDirectory

public Directory getFileSystemDirectory(java.lang.String directoryPathString)

Description copied from class: Paths

Return the file system Directory object corresponding to the string serialized representation. If the directory doesn't exist, it's implementation dependent whether this method throws a PathNotFoundException or a PathNotFoundException is thrown when the returned directory is used--different implementations do different things there.

Not all implementations of Directory support serializing it as a string. An exception is thrown if it's not supported.

Specified by:

getFileSystemDirectory in class Paths

Parameters:

directoryPathString - file system path string

Returns:

Directory for the specified path
