Java SFTP specify absolute path -

i have used code sftp java upload

package com.as400samplecode;  import java.io.file; import java.io.fileinputstream; import java.util.properties;  import org.apache.commons.vfs2.fileobject; import org.apache.commons.vfs2.filesystemoptions; import org.apache.commons.vfs2.selectors; import org.apache.commons.vfs2.impl.standardfilesystemmanager; import org.apache.commons.vfs2.provider.sftp.sftpfilesystemconfigbuilder;  public class sendmyfiles {   static properties props;   public static void main(string[] args) {    sendmyfiles sendmyfiles = new sendmyfiles();   if (args.length < 1)   {    system.err.println("usage: java " + sendmyfiles.getclass().getname()+      " properties_file file_to_ftp ");    system.exit(1);   }    string propertiesfile = args[0].trim();   string filetoftp = args[1].trim();   sendmyfiles.startftp(propertiesfile, filetoftp);   }   public boolean startftp(string propertiesfilename, string filetoftp){    props = new properties();   standardfilesystemmanager manager = new standardfilesystemmanager();    try {     props.load(new fileinputstream("properties/" + propertiesfilename));    string serveraddress = props.getproperty("serveraddress").trim();    string userid = props.getproperty("userid").trim();    string password = props.getproperty("password").trim();    string remotedirectory = props.getproperty("remotedirectory").trim();    string localdirectory = props.getproperty("localdirectory").trim();     //check if file exists    string filepath = localdirectory +  filetoftp;    file file = new file(filepath);    if (!file.exists())     throw new runtimeexception("error. local file not found");     //initializes file manager    manager.init();     //setup our sftp configuration    filesystemoptions opts = new filesystemoptions();    sftpfilesystemconfigbuilder.getinstance().setstricthostkeychecking(      opts, "no");    sftpfilesystemconfigbuilder.getinstance().setuserdirisroot(opts, true);    sftpfilesystemconfigbuilder.getinstance().settimeout(opts, 10000);     //create sftp uri using host name, userid, password,  remote path , file name    string sftpuri = "sftp://" + userid + ":" + password +  "@" + serveraddress + "/" +       remotedirectory + filetoftp;     // create local file object    fileobject localfile = manager.resolvefile(file.getabsolutepath());     // create remote file object    fileobject remotefile = manager.resolvefile(sftpuri, opts);     // copy local file sftp server    remotefile.copyfrom(localfile, selectors.select_self);    system.out.println("file upload successful");    }   catch (exception ex) {    ex.printstacktrace();    return false;   }   {    manager.close();   }    return true;  }   } 

source of code is: http://www.mysamplecode.com/2013/06/sftp-apache-commons-file-download.html

i need specify path ftp not log into

/root/chosenpath

when connected server to

/chosenpath

when using part of code:

   //create sftp uri using host name, userid, password,  remote path , file name    string sftpuri = "sftp://" + userid + ":" + password +  "@" + serveraddress + "/" +       remotedirectory + filetoftp; 

is there way how specify absolute path instead of relative?

thank in advance.

you have line in code:

sftpfilesystemconfigbuilder.getinstance().setuserdirisroot(opts, true); 

i try set flag false.

sftpfilesystemconfigbuilder.getinstance().setuserdirisroot(opts, false);
