title: Does NetBeans have a standard area for plugin configuration files?
body: <p>I am developing a plugin for NetBeans IDE 8.1 and I need to store persistent preferences to a file on disk, is there a standard location in NetBeans to store configuration files for plugins? And if there is such a place then what's the easiest way of defining it (as the NetBeans could be installed anywhere, especially depending on the OS)? Is there a special method or something which allows one to easily specify the location?</p>
