And you can, just omit the filename from the path.
A File object in Java doesn't have to be a file in the traditional
sense, it could just as well be a directory.
var myFileDir = <THE PATH TO THE DIRECTORY>
var myFile = CreateObject("java", "java.io.File").init(myFilePath)
if( myFile.canWrite() ) {
// Do stuff
}
