public native boolean isAbsolute()
Returns
true if the pathname indicated by the
File object is an absolute pathname;
false otherwise.
Description
Tests if the file represented by this File object is an
absolute pathname. The definition of an absolute pathname is system
dependent. For example, on UNIX, a pathname is absolute if its
first character is the separator character. On Windows platforms,
a pathname is absolute if its first character is an ASCII '\' or
'/', or if it begins with a letter followed by a colon.
