java get current directory

To get the current directory in Java, you can use the System.getProperty() method with the "user.dir" property. This property returns the current working directory of the Java process.

Here's an example of how to use the System.getProperty() method to get the current directory:

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    String currentDirectory = System.getProperty("user.dir");
    System.out.println(currentDirectory); // prints the current directory
  }
}

In this example, the System.getProperty() method is called with the "user.dir" property to get the current working directory as a string. The current directory is then printed to the console.

You can use this string to create a File object or to perform other operations on the current directory.
