getApplicationDataDirectory

public abstract Directory getApplicationDataDirectory()

Returns:

the directory where the application should store its private data.

getFileSystemDirectory

public abstract Directory getFileSystemDirectory(java.lang.String directoryPathString)

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.

Parameters:

directoryPathString - file system path string

Returns:

Directory for the specified path

getTestOutputDirectory

public Directory getTestOutputDirectory(java.lang.String testName)

Get the test output directory for the specified test name. This directory is normally under /target/test-output/. Any existing directory will have its contents deleted by this method, before returning. The idea here is that test output sticks around after the tests are run, so it can be inspected to maybe do some debugging. But it's under "target" so it shouldn't show up as new files for source control, just intermediate output generated by the build.

Parameters:

testName - test name, used as part of directory name

Returns:

directory to hold test output
