Hi.
I stumbled over this article:
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/qa/qa1170/_index.html at the Apple
Developer site. It describes where to find important Java directories on OS X.
One important thing described in the article is that the ~/Library/Application
Support directory shouldn´t be used for critical application data, as the
directory is only meant for noncritical application resources. You should
instead put critical application data in directly in ~ /Library/<Application
Name>.
