Java Forum / General / May 2006Location of Temp Directory?
I'm having an app developed for me and they are storing the files in a newly created folder on the C: drive but I don't want to make directory there. Is there not a way to get the temp variable for machine, like %temp or %tmp? Thanks "Barkster" <bdog4@hotmail.com> wrote in news:1148334332.450198.40590 @u72g2000cwu.googlegroups.com: > I'm having an app developed for me and they are storing the files in a > newly created folder on the C: drive but I don't want to make directory > there.

Thanks ( http://www.rgagnon.com/javadetails/java-0484.html ) String tempdir = System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"); if ( !(tempdir.endsWith("/") || tempdir.endsWith("\\")) ) tempdir = tempdir + System.getProperty("file.separator"); Bye.

The java.io.tmpdir property tells you where the JVM will store temporary files and is set by the implementation. SignatureSteve W. Jackson Montgomery, Alabama Thanks!
