finding current directory

Is there a way to find out the directory that a class file is being ran in. The goal her is that someone could put my class file anywhere on their machine, and I could find the path of where that is.
I've checked the java.io.File methods, and it doesn't seem to have what I'm looking for.
Thanks.

You can try
System.getProperty("user.dir")

hope this helps.

I haven't tried it, but I think someone once recommended new File(".")...

Ya it's new File(".").getName() gives u the current directory.U can use .getPath() to get the whole path also.
Happy middling with java.
