Set Dir for user files

from the other email about misc files being in the ofbizHome it went to
investigate why. I thought they were suppose to go to the runtime/tmp
so in the base code it uses "user.dir" as a way to find ofbizHome.
There is a property "ofbiz.home".
there is code that uses
String path = System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/spreadsheet";
I suggest the user.dir be set to "ofbiz.home"+"\runtime\tmp"
this allows the user files to be cleaned using the ant clean-all

Re: Set Dir for user files

Good idea. Could you create a patch and submit it to Jira?

Re: Set Dir for user files

In reply to this post by BJ Freeman

any reason I can not take the user.dir out of the start.Java.

if (ofbizHome == null) {
ofbizHome = props.getProperty("ofbiz.home", ".");
// get a full path
if (ofbizHome.equals(".")) {
ofbizHome = System.getProperty("user.dir");
ofbizHome = ofbizHome.replace('\\', '/');
System.out.println("Set OFBIZ_HOME to - " + ofbizHome);
}
}

Re: Set Dir for user files

In reply to this post by BJ Freeman

the start.java code uses the user.dir
if change the code to so the user.dir is not used does it break anything.
I showed how it is used now.

Re: Set Dir for user files

There is no need to change that. The JVM user dir is not the same thing as an "OFBiz user" user dir.

The problematic code just needs to be changed to point to the correct folder (runtime/tmp). Use an existing method to get that folder location, or create a method if it doesn't exist.

Re: Set Dir for user files

I see what i missed and understand what you say.
now though I have to find all the places that put files and change them
so they all point to runtime\tmp as the base address.

not runtime\tmp directly but user.download.dir property with runtime\tmp
