Is there a Java utility which will convert a String path to use the correct File separator char?

Question

I have developed a number of classes which manipulate files in Java. I am working on a Linux box, and have been blissfully typing new File(\"path/to/some/file\");

Answer 1

Shouldn't it be enough to say:

"path"+File.Seperator+"to"+File.Seperator+"some"+File.Seperator+"file"
