Technical name for path elements

You hear terms like "classpath", "build path", etc. all the time, referencing a list of directories that something will look in for a particular reason.

Does anybody know the technical name for each item in these paths? Path Element?!?!

Yes - this is a programming question! I'm writing a classpath explorer object in Java and would like to know what to name my POJO property:

public class ClassPathExplorer
{
    private List<URI> pathElements; // ??????
}
Solution

  • I believe it is called as path or resourcePath
