[news.eclipse.technology.m2e] Re: How to write to /src/main/resources?

["Will Horn" <will.horn@xxxxxxxxx>]

First, files in "src/main/resources" will be added to your application jar 
so you can always read them (in Java) from Class#getResourceAsStream.  But 
you can't write to there!

And your application shouldn't rely on source code folders.  "user.dir" 
happens to be the location where application B is launched, but what about 
when you build the jar and ship it to someone else?  How about using 
System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir")?
