I wasn't referring to finding the folder. I was referring to actually working with its contents. That is, checking that a folder exists for your app (probably using the bundle identifiers like preferences do), providing facilities for a generic storage dictionary like the preferences, and the ability to get a path to your application's folder in Application Support for storing things that you need to write directly (if you are just copying a file, for example). It could also handle the sort of synchronization that Dave was referring to in his original post.

This isn't supposed be to be anything ground-breaking, just a small object to make some of these tedious checks and serialization calls a bit more convenient.
Actually I should have mentioned the issue of getting user authentication for writing into /Library. Is there ready-to-go Java code to wrap around stuff requiring administrator authentication? That should be part of the library.
