How to get the path of a running JAR file?

Answer 1

I had the the same problem and I solved it that way:

File currentJavaJarFile = new File(Main.class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation().getPath());   
String currentJavaJarFilePath = currentJavaJarFile.getAbsolutePath();
String currentRootDirectoryPath = currentJavaJarFilePath.replace(currentJavaJarFile.getName(), "");

I hope I was of help to you.
