title: Accessing a network path and coverting it to a File path using Java
body: <p>I have a network path which looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>\\rennas01\\test\Project\\InputFiles
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need to use this network path as a abstract path for my File instance:</p>
  
  <pre><code>File src=new File(path);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I use this network path to look something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>File src=new File("\\\\rennas01\\test\\Project\\InputFiles")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As it is a path to a network shared driver. File will not accept it as a correct parameter.
  Thanks in advance!</p>
