> If  the  user.dir property is changed ,  you wil  find IO calls are working 
> on different directory than what is returned  by 
> File.getAbsolutePath()   if the file handle is created with a relative path  
> because of JVM issue: 4117557 
> http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4117557
> I think  it  is  not good  idea for test harness to change  the user.dir 
> property.    It makes hard to debug tests ,  because 
> files  are not created  at  diferent location than  what is returned by 
> getAbsolutePath().    Atleast,   I had  fun time figuring out this :-)
> user.dir  is being  changed at the following code segment :
> org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.harness. RunTest.java 
>  testJvmProps.addElement("user.dir="+userDirName);
