What? Of course there is a File class, I am referring to java.io.File. Are you referring to no instance of the class? If so then that is not a concern for using the static field separator as static means the variable is assigned to the class instead of instances and so can be either accessed through an instance or the class itself (eg. java.io.File.separator, or in the case of java.io.File being imported just File.separator ).

At the time the paths are being created there is no file class. The class is used to create the directories afterwards. John On Mon, Mar 12, 2012 at 07:46:15PM -0000, Michael Whapples wrote:
I noticed the push, why aren't you using the static separator field from the java.io.File class? Michael Whapples-----Original Message----- From: John J.

I fixed the error and then tried running BrailleBlaster. It looks like there is a permissions problem with using the Windows appdata\roaming folder. When I run BrailleBlaster from the command line it appears to work, but the translate item will not work, because it can't write a temporary file. After BrailleBlaster terminates there is an exception trace saying that the log file could not be opened because a lock could not be obtained. How do other applications get around this?
