Getting My Documents path in Java

Question

I need to find my documents path using Java. The following code doesn\'t give me \"accurate\" loation

System.getProperty(\"user.home\");

What sh

Answer 1

Since the most upvoted answer from @xchiltonx uses JFileChooser I would like to add that, regarding performance, this is faster than using JFileChooser:

FileSystemView.getFileSystemView().getDefaultDirectory().getPath()

In my PC, JFileChooser aproach needed 300ms, and calling FileSystemView directly needed less than 100ms.
