public boolean isAbsolute()Parameters
NA
Return ValueThe method returns true if this abstract pathname is absolute, else the method returns false.
ExceptionNA
The following example shows the usage of Java File isAbsolute() method. We've created two File references. Then we're creating a File Object using test.txt which is not present in the current directory. Then we've created the file using createNewFile() method. Now using getAbsoluteFile() method, we're getting the file and checking the absolute path of file using isAbsolute() method and printing it.
FileDemo.javapackage com.tutorialspoint; import java.io.File; public class FileDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { File f = null; File f1 = null; try { // create new files f = new File("test.txt"); // create new file in the system f.createNewFile(); // create new file object from the absolute path f1 = f.getAbsoluteFile(); // prints the file path if is absolute System.out.print("Is absolute path: "+ f1.isAbsolute()); } catch(Exception e) { // if any error occurs e.printStackTrace(); } } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result−
Is absolute path: trueExample - Usage of File isAbsolute() method
The following example shows the usage of Java File isAbsolute() method. We've created a File reference. Then we're creating a File Object using F:/test.txt which is present in the provided directory. Now using getAbsoluteFile() method, we're getting the file and printing path status as absolute using isAbsolute() method.
