How to get path to current directory?

Hello.

How to get path to current directory and put this path to object of class
String?
I found FileSystemView.getHomeDirectory() but it returns path to home
directory for example:

C:\Documments and Settings\Thomas

Thanks for help.

Posting your query once really was sufficient.

To answer your question, try grabbing the "user.dir" property -- this
is the current working directory. To retreive this property, use
something akin to:

String userDir = System.getProperty("user.dir");

HTH!
