Hmm. Not sure exactly what you are trying to do from your description.
Are you trying to get the current working directory?
Try this code and see if it works for you.
/**
* Returns a string consisting of the current working directory.
*
* @since JToolkit 0.2
*/
public static String getCWD()
{
// [idea courtesy of <a href="mailto:travis@nrg.org.invalid">Travis Thornhill</a>]
File file;
int index;
String pathSeparator;
String cwd = null;
file = new File( "." );
pathSeparator = File.separator;
index = file.getAbsolutePath().lastIndexOf( pathSeparator );
try
{
cwd = file.getAbsolutePath().substring( 0, index );
}
catch ( StringIndexOutOfBoundsException e )
{
System.err.println( "Caught Exception: " + e.getMessage() + "\n" );
}
return cwd;
}
