Re: Find out really (!) the path / getParent() not working
Hi Lars
What you are doing is correct the only thing is that you are getting
the relative path. for ex.
File fileName = new File("abc.java");
String path = fileName.getParent(); //path = null
File fileName = new File("D:/test/abc.java");
String path = fileName.getParent(); //path = D:/test
Now if you want to get absolute path from relative path you can do
this.
File fileName = new File(args[0]);
fileName = fileName.getAbsolutePath();
fileName = new File(fileName);
String path = fileName.getParent();
I hope this will solve your problem.
If there is anything more, let me know.

fileName = new File()
