Hi.

Quick thought.

Is one able to access a file purely through its path, when using Java SE 6??

This feature seems to be available in the Java 7 preview JDK in the package nio.file. But what about SE 6?

Care to explain that? Because I use the term 'path' of a file as a relative or absolute name of the file itself, not just the directory in which a file is stored as you seem to imply.

kind regards,

Mea Culpa.

I had something else in mind, which seems to have sorted itself out.

Thank you.
