Do you really want to know the extension's project dir
("D:/gvsig/linux/workspace/gvSIG-1_0-rc1-src/extGeoSQLBuilder/")
or the dir where the extension is installed
("D:/gvsig/linux/workspace/gvSIG-1_0-rc1-src/_fwAndami/gvSIG/extensiones/packageName/")?

If you want to get the second option, you can use:

ClassLoader loader = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
if (loader instanceof PluginClassLoader) {
    // this should be always true if we are in an extension

	PluginClassLoader ploader = (PluginClassLoader) loader;
    	System.out.println(loader.getPluginName());
}

This justs gets the extension's packageName.

If you wish the full extension's dir, you can use:

System.out.println(PluginServices.getPluginServices(this).getPluginDirectory().getAbsolutePath());
