Stack (file location)

[R@emdonck]

Hi,

I have this peace of Java code and I would like to know how to change the file location in the code. (only a filename (test.txt) is in the code and I would like to add a path (c:\test.txt).

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

class StackDemoUsingArrays{	
		static String [] myString = new String[3];	
		static int count = 0;	
		
		public static void main (String args[]) 	throws Exception {		
			BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader
			(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(new File("test.txt")))); // <-- I want to change this	
			String str = "";		
		while((str = br.readLine()) != null){			
			push(str.trim());		}		
			System.out.println(pop());	}	
			
		public static String pop(){		
				
			if(count<=0) {			
			System.out.println("Cannot pop an empty stack");			
			System.exit(0);		}		
			return myString[-- count]; 	}	
				
		public static void push(Object o){		
			if(count == myString.length){			
			String [] myString1 = new String[myString.length*2];			
			System.arraycopy((Object)myString,0,(Object)myString1,0,myString.length);			
			myString = myString1;		}		
			myString[count] = o.toString();		
			count++;	}
			}

would you not just change it to c:\test.txt???

One word of warning. that code would only work on Windows Machines as there is no such thing as c: on unix (can't speak for mac, but its based on unix so i assume its the same)

Yeah wouldn't you just add in the path? I wouldn't hardcode the file name though. File names are seriously platform dependent.
