Best practice to save temp files on tomcat? [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can use this method to get temp file location according to your Operating System

public static String getSystemFileLocation()
{
    File tmpFile = null;
    String fileLocation="/tmp/";
    if (System.getProperty("os.name").toUpperCase().indexOf("WINDOWS") == 0) {
        tmpFile=new File("c:\\temp");
        if(tmpFile.exists()) {
            fileLocation="c:\\temp\\";
        }
        else {
            tmpFile.mkdir();
            fileLocation="c:\\temp\\";
        }
    }
    else if (System.getProperty("os.name").toUpperCase().indexOf("WINDOWS") == -1) {
        fileLocation="/tmp/";   
    }
    return fileLocation;
}
