how to get full path name from realtive path
hi....
i have made a java program, which is called inside a shell script.
Now the filename is to be supppiled as a command line argument to shell like
./nsdnet.sh ./nsdnet_file.csv
what i want is , this command line name should be interpreted as full path by the java code
like /dialp/Release/bin
and if we write
as
./nsdnet.sh ../nsdnet_file.csv
, then the filename should get expand to /dialp/Release/nsdnet_file.csv
is this possible?

Write the Java code to browse everyfile on your pc until it finds itthen you know the full path or you maybe able to make use of some of linux's search capabilities.

You can use the getAbsolutePath() method in File.

Doesn't that require you to gave the file object, not the file name...

Create one then
File myFile = new File("file.txt"); myFile.getAbsolutePath();

Re: how to get full path name from realtive path
isn't that the point of relative paths? so you don't have to type out the whole current directory?
If you need a different directory (without knowing the complete address before-hand), this link is quite useful.
