Writing object to file
My dilemma is i am wanting to write an arraylist to a specific folder within the package mounted in Netbeans. My only problem is I am running on a mac and cannot get to write to correct place. I have tried to use /.../file name etc. It works if i explicitly give the whole path but i do not want to do this as this app will need to transportable to other machines. Any help please.
Thanks
Chad

Sure, here's a basic example of achieving a common directory in Mac, Win, and Unix: http://home.subnet.at/peter/2006/04/where-am-i-operating-system-detection-with-java/
I tried you suggestion and it works good for getting to the users home folder but I am wanting to contain the resource data file all within the same package. ie... Folder contains all .java files and any resource folders needed. I can get the resource just fine using getClass().getResourceAsStream() but when i write out i get errors. I am using
Is there something like the getClass... that mimics writing out to files. I am also using a mac and only plan on distributing this to other macs only.
Thanks
