Hi,

The best way to do this is

Create one property file(sys.properties) in your classpath(in src folder) having the folder path defined in it
eg

path=""

Load this file as Resource

Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.load(<ClassName>.class.getClassLoader()	.getResourceAsStream("sys.properties"));

Get the path variable using

properties.getProperty("path")

Hope this helps
