Answer 1

We can easily find out the current working directory in Java.

public class Demo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

    System.out.println("Current Working Directory = " +

              System.getProperty("user.dir"));

}
}

You can also use java.nio.file.Path and java.nio.file.Paths.

Path currentRelativePath = Paths.get("");
String s = currentRelativePath.toAbsolutePath().toString();
System.out.println("Current relative path is: " + s);
