Answer 3

Generally we want to add images, txt, doc and etc files inside our Java project and specific folder such as /images. I found in search that in JAVA, we can get path from Root to folder which we specify as,

String myStorageFolder= "/images"; // this is folder name in where I want to store files.

String getImageFolderPath= request.getServletContext().getRealPath(myStorageFolder);

Here, request is object of HttpServletRequest. It will get the whole path from Root to /images folder. You will get output like,

C:\Users\STARK\Workspaces\MyEclipse.metadata.me_tcat7\webapps\JavaProject\images

In Android, application-level meta data is accessed through the Context reference, which an activity is a descendant of.

For example, you can get the source directory via the getApplicationInfo().sourceDir property. There are methods for other folders as well (assets directory, data dir, database dir, etc.).

Answer 5

Are you looking for the root folder of the application? Then I would use

 String path = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(".").getPath();

to actually "find out where I am".

Answer 6

You can check this sample code to understand how you can access the relative path using the java sample code

import java.io.File;

public class MainClass {

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    File relative = new File("html/javafaq/index.html");

    System.out.println("relative: ");
    System.out.println(relative.getName());
    System.out.println(relative.getPath());
  }
}

Here getPath will display the relative path of the file.
