[SOLVED] What is the relative path for data files as shown below?

What is the relative path for data files as shown below?

EDIT: I want this to work not only in the IDE (when it runs from the root directory) but also when I run it from Terminal (I have cd'd into the src directory.

I have a file called main.java.org.name.nlp.lg.Class, which is in the src directory. Outside the src directory (in the root directory), I have a folder called data which contains the file data/en/words/file.txt. How can I load file.txt into Class.java via a relative path? My current code gives me a NPE:

URL url = new Class().getClass().getResource("../../../../../../../data/en/words/file.txt");
File f = new File(url.getPath());
List<String> list = Files.readAllLines(f.toPath());
System.out.println(list);

Here is the file tree:

src
  main
    java
      org
        name
          nlp
            lg
              Class
data
  en
    words
      file.txt

Thanks.

Solution

Path pathToYourFile = Paths.get(Paths.get("data/en/words").toAbsolutePath().toString(), 
                               "file.txt");

File yourFile = pathToYourFile.toFile();
