I testes a shapefile datastore and the xml gives me full path with filename

<connectionParameters>
<entry key="charset">ISO-8859-1</entry>
<entry key="filetype">shapefile</entry>
<entry key="create spatial index">true</entry>
<entry key="memory mapped buffer">false</entry>
<entry key="timezone">Europe/Lisbon</entry>
<entry key="enable spatial index">true</entry>
<entry key="namespace">namespace</entry>
<entry key="cache and reuse memory maps">true</entry>
*<entry key="url">file:data/shapefiles/states.shp</entry>*
...

or do you mean adding a store as Directory of spatial files (shapefiles)?
