Running on NT vs Unix - How to tell

Is there a way I can tell what platform Tomcat is running on.  I'm having to
build directory structures based on where the JSP is running from and I need
to know weather to use "\" or "/" and weather I need a drive specified "C:",
"D:" etc....

Thanks
Chris

I'm not sure off the top of my head about the OS, but as far as "/" vs
"\", see the docs for java.io.File. It has path separator static member
variables that you can (should) use for platform independance.
