findUserDir

public static void findUserDir()

Find and create if neccessary the user's application directory, according to operating system standards. The resolved directory is then stored in the system property taverna.home

If the system property taverna.home already exists, the directory specified by that path will be used instead and created if needed.

If any exception occurs (such as out of diskspace), taverna.home will be unset.

On Windows, this will typically be something like:

        C:\Document and settings\MyUsername\Application Data\MyApplication
 

while on Mac OS X it will be something like:

        /Users/MyUsername/Library/Application Support/MyApplication
 

All other OS'es are assumed to be UNIX-alike, returning something like:

        /user/myusername/.myapplication
 

If the directory does not already exist, it will be created. It will also create the 'conf' directory within it if it doesn't exist.
