How can I get crash-reports folder?

[TheASTRO]

Hello. What is the best way of getting crash-reports folder? I looked into forge source and found something called mcDir in CoreMod class. But I can`t really get into how to do that..

Do you mean you want to know where to find the folder?

No, I need to get crash-reports folder within my mod. So it will work with Java`s "File".

Generally I am trying to read crash-reports folder content.

But what's the reason for doing this? What's the overall goal?

 

If you look the code that saves crash report files (i.e. calls CrashReport#saveToFile), you'll see that the server uses MinecraftServer#getDataDirectory as the parent directory of the crash-reports directory and the client uses Minecraft#mcDataDir.

You mean this will work? 

File file1 = new File(Minecraft.getMinecraft().mcDataDir, "crash-reports");

In client-only code, yes.
