public class Main {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    File aFile = new File("a.htm");
    System.out.println(aFile.getAbsoluteFile());
    System.out.println(aFile.getAbsolutePath());
    try {
      System.out.println(aFile.getCanonicalFile());

      System.out.println(aFile.getCanonicalPath());
    } catch (IOException e) {
