directory path

[sandeepmur]

Hi,

I have to specify a path for inserting images to a directory located at (/Programas/Apache Group/Tomcat 4.1/webapps/sands/images);

I am getting a null pointer exception. If I just mention /programas or /programas/apache~1 it works fine. How can I specify the path in a better way to make it work?

thnx,
sg

Hi again,

I have narrowed down my prob to exactly this. If I remove the spaces in the file path, all my problems would be solved but it might not be possible to hv all filepaths without any spaces.

So is there anyway I can substitute the spaces with something else like %20 or so??

thnx

Have you tried putting the directory in quotes ie :

String path = "C:/abc/\"de f\"/ghj";

Also look at the File class documentation - there are methods such as getCanonicalPath() which you may want to fiddle with.
