I started working with files, a simple operation of writing and reading files.
But i had an error when writing a file and now i have to fix it by hand.
Thats the problem, i don't know where is my file.
Also i would like to see the file i'm writing.
I am working with intellij idea 2016 1.4, maybe the file is complied in a jar?
Yes, i know that clearing cache its an option.
nothing here: https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/wiki/File-handling
on the wiki link only talk about where you can find the ablolute path file but thats not my case. I get the file this way:
this.resolver = Gdx.files.local(path + "item"+ String.valueOf(weaponNumber) + ".txt");
String description = this.resolver.readString();
So.. where is the file? thanks
In the desktop version it saves the file in the assets folder inside your android module.
FileHandle file = Gdx.files.local("myfile.txt");
file.writeString("Test libGDX", false);
System.out.println(Gdx.files.getLocalStoragePath());
Output: D:\Dropbox\Projetos\Outros\gdxTest\android\assets\
The project folder in my computer is gdxTest.
In your case you have the path var so probably will be a folder inside assets folder.
But when you pack the desktop game into a jar file, the file will be created in the same folder where your game jar file is located. Usually yourProject\desktop\build\libs.
The difference is because when we configure the desktop project we set the Working Directory in the yourProject\android\assets\ folder. So to Android Studio it is the local folder of your project.

I am using c++/winrt within a WinUI3 project and I am trying to have the application pull up a text file where users can select an option from it. The file I am trying to reach is in the project folder and included in the project. Currently, I have the file path set to my device so it pulls the text file from my directory. I want the application to be able to read from the program files instead of the long file path that is currently coded. I tried to change the relative path of the file and used the fstream function to read the file. I also tried just using "Aircrafts/Aircrafts.txt" but that did not work either.
Here is a snippet of the code.
fstream aircraftFile;
string info;
void MainWindow::loadPlatformData()
ifstream aircraftFile; //File Object for list
aircraftFile.open("C:\\Users\\TimmyK\\Documents\\GitHub\\sentinel3\\Sentinel3\\Aircrafts\\Aircrafts.txt", ios::in);
My guess is that you are writing a UWP project which is why the full-path access to your file fails. UWP's have restricted access to the file system per Microsoft Docs.
For a UWP project, you mark the file as Content Yes in the file properties so it's placed into your application's layout package. Normally the 'current working directory' is pointing to your packaged program's installed location. You can get a full path to this directory using:
auto installdir = Windows.ApplicationModel::Current().InstalledLocation();
std::wstring str = installdir.Path().c_str();
For Win32 "classic" desktop applications, there's no specific packaging or installation solution so there's lots of different ways to do it. In Visual Studio when you start the debugger or run a program, the "current working directory" is going to be the project directory but if you run the EXE from the command-line, it will be in a different directory.
To find the running EXE's directory per IInspectable, use GetModuleFileName:
wchar_t exePath[MAX_PATH] = {};
DWORD nc = GetModuleFileNameW(nullptr, exePath, MAX_PATH);
if (nc > MAX_PATH || nc == 0)
{
// Error condition
}
A typical pattern is to look in the EXE folder, then 'walk up' the directory to find asset files. This is what we do a lot in DirectX samples for Win32. See FindMedia.
I have created the default play application in IntelliJ in directory P. I have over-written the default index.scala.html with my own html code. The html code refers to some css and js files which are outside the directory P. To include these external files, I added the directory of these files using project configuration settings.
My webpage doesn't load properly as the server returns 404 for the css and js files. What am I doing wrong?
When you added your directory using project structure, you only say:
Hey, IDEA, please consider this folder part of my project, consider
its contents source code and display it when I open my project.
However, when you deploy or run your app, you only deploy the usual folders to the server, which contain the resources which will be available for clients to access.
The external directory is not part of these directories and will not be deployed.
What you can do is to copy the file from the external directory as a part of your build process before deploying the application.

Glad to see this site, Thanks guys for being active. :)
I have a problem in Visual Studio 2010/VB.Net
I have windows form in Visual Basic, I deployed the software(form) to one installer
Now I want to open My PDF file( i-e: Specific) with Button_Click_Event
I know that:
Process.Start("MyPDF.pdf")
But I dont know if user install my software in his PC so may be he install the software in C D or other directory, and also I dont know How to include PDF file in my project :)
Please suggest for me, I am searching this every where but failed so pl help me
Use Add->Existing Item on your Project. Then add the PDF File to your Project.
Afterwards you have to set the Properties of the newly added file to the following:
Now the file will be added to your "Output" Directory after you build your Project.
Now use your Process.Start("MyPDF.pdf") call. It will open up, as it resides in the same directory.
This is rather easy:
Simply include the file by dragging it to your project folder and in its options, tell it to copy to the build directory.
Thereafter, find the path through the my.application methods.
Build a correct path from that and launch it via process.start
I'm developing a plug-in, and I need to get a path of XML file that exist within java package, my question is how can I get the path of the file?
when i'm running the project as is i'm getting the file successfully but when i'm running the project as eclipse application the file located in anoter path.
any idea?
You can get every resource as InputStream with this line
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("/yourpackage/namefile");
Hope this help.
I have a problem using Intellij Idea.
I am absolutely unable to load text file as InputStream - it doesnt matter where do I put the file (main/java, main/resources...) it just can't find the file - in Eclipse everything works just fine.
I tried setings->compiler->resource patterns and added ?*.txt but that doesn't seem to work either.
Any help is appreciated.
If you load it as a File, make sure that Working Directory is properly set in IDEA Run/Debug Configuration, since it's the default directory where Java will look for a file when you try to access it like new File("file.txt"). Working directory should be set to the directory of your project containing .txt files.
If you load files as a classpath resource, then they should reside somewhere under Source root and will be copied to the classpath according to Settings | Compiler | Resource Patterns.
If you can't get it working, upload your project somewhere including IDEA project files so that we can point to your mistake.
Look at the image, notice that the txt files are in the project root, and not the source folders (in blue).
If you open the Project Structure dialog, and click on Modules and select your module - are the correct folders marked as Source Folders on the sources tab?
Link for how to get to Project Structure dialog
Also, if you print out the absolute path of that file you are trying to read, is that anywhere near where you expect it to be?
An easy way to figure out the same would be to try creating a file in the same fashion and see where it gets created in your project. You can put your input file at the same location and it should work just fine (if it doesn't, you should check your resource pattern which might be causing the file to be not copied over in the build output).
This method actually gives you the working directory of your intellij settings which is pointed out in the accepted answer. Just sharing as I had similar trouble and I figured out this way. :)
