Dear expert,

I have a following question: Let we have a java application packed into jar
file or native executable (using JBuilder). Can the application determine
jar or exe file path at the runtime? Is there an analogue of Win32
GetModuleName in java? When I work with Delphi I store ini (or properties)
files in the same folder where the exe file is stored. I can not pack the
properties files into jar as a resourse because the application needs change
it while running (for example it saves there UI preferences).

Thanks in advance,
Alexei Akimov.
