One way is to get system properties that give you the path separator for the operating system  this tutorial explains how   You can then use a standard string join using the file separator

This is a start  I don t think it works exactly as you intend  but it at least produces a consistent result   import java io File   public class Main       public static void main final String   argv          throws Exception               System out println pathJoin             System out println pathJoin               System out println pathJoin  a             System out println pathJoin  a    b             System out println pathJoin  a    b    c             System out println pathJoin  a    b        def                public static String pathJoin final String     pathElements                final String path           if pathElements    null    pathElements length    0                        path   File separator                    else                       final StringBuilder builder               builder   new StringBuilder                 for final String pathElement   pathElements                                final String sanitizedPathElement                      the      is for Windows    you will need to come up with the                     appropriate regex for this to be portable                 sanitizedPathElement   pathElement replaceAll        File separator                        if sanitizedPathElement length    gt  0                                        builder append sanitizedPathElement                       builder append File separator                                                path   builder toString                       return  path

This concerns Java versions 7 and earlier   To quote a good answer to the same question   If you want it back as a string later  you can call getPath    Indeed  if you really wanted to mimic Path Combine  you could just write something like   public static String combine  String path1  String path2        File file1   new File path1       File file2   new File file1  path2       return file2 getPath
