How to specify filepath in java?
I have created a java application for "Debian Linux." Now I want that that application reads a file placed in the directory where the jar file of that application is specified. So what to specify at the argument of the File Object?
File fileToBeReaded = new File(...);
What to specify as argument for the above statement to specify relative filepath representing the path where the jar file of the application has been placed?
Answer
If you know the name of the file, of course it's simply
new File("./myFileName")
If you don't know the name, you can use the File object's list() method to get a list of files in the current directory, and then pick the one you want.
