(1) The system properties (and examples) that point to a (one, 1) directory: java.home = C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre java.io.tmpdir = C:\DOCUME~1\ggregory\LOCALS~1\Temp\ user.dir = C:\cvs-store\transidiom\deve user.home = C:\Documents and Settings\ggregory These could be mapped to java.io.File. This I could use. For all others below, I have no use for today. (2) The system properties that point to a directory list are: java.endorsed.dirs = C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\endorsed java.ext.dirs = C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\ext java.library.path = C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\bin;.;C:\WINDOWS\System32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_ 03\bin;C:\Perl\bin\;C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\Java\lib;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\PROGR AM FILES\THINKPAD\UTILITIES;C:\Program Files\IBM\IBM CICS Universal Client\BIN;c:\bin;C:\java\apache\apache-ant-1.6.0\bin;C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin;C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\tools\c\samples\bin;C:\Documents and Settings\ggregory\My Documents\bin;C:\Program Files\4NT;C:\java\javacc-3.2\bin;C:\java\sun\jwsdp-1.2\jwsdp-shared\bin;C:\P rogram Files\Apache Software Foundation\Maven 1.0-rc1\bin sun.boot.class.path = C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\endorsed\xalan.jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib \endorsed\xercesImpl.jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\endorsed\xml-apis.jar; C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\rt.jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\i18n.jar;C: \java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\sunrsasign.jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\jsse. jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\jce.jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\lib\charse ts.jar;C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\classes sun.boot.library.path = C:\java\sun\1.4.2_03\jre\bin (3) These could be mapped to java.io.File[]. Other interesing properties that could map to a java.net.URL: java.vendor.url = http://java.sun.com/ java.vendor.url.bug = http://java.sun.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi Gary > > From: "__matthewHawthorne" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Gary Gregory wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > > > When I use SystemUtils.JAVA_IO_TMPDIR, I really need > > > > > > File file = new File(SystemUtils.JAVA_IO_TMPDIR) > > > > > > Any thoughts/allergic reactions to providing a > > > SystemUtils.JAVA_IO_TMPDIR_FILE? > > > > > > Gary > > > > > > Would proving a static File instance create any strangeness with regard > > to system resources? I'm not sure.
