combine paths in java

I would like to know if there is such a method in Java. Take this snippet as example :

// this will output a/b System.out.println(path_join("a","b")); // a/b  System.out.println(path_join("a","/b"); 

Answer 1

This concerns Java versions 7 and earlier.

To quote a good answer to the same question:

If you want it back as a string later, you can call getPath(). Indeed, if you really wanted to mimic Path.Combine, you could just write something like:

public static String combine (String path1, String path2) {     File file1 = new File(path1);     File file2 = new File(file1, path2);     return file2.getPath(); }
