List all files in a directory

How can I list all the files in a directory which has folders and files as well? I just wanna files..
File dataDir = new File("c:/data/);
File[] listing = dataDir.listFiles();
but it list the immediate no of folders in the data directory. Is there a way to get all the files in the subdirectories in data folder and excluding the folders?
thanks!

Iterate over the returned array, ignoring those whose isDirectory() returns true.
Alternatively, you could call listFiles(fileNameFilter) instead, with an implementation of FileNameFilter which rejects File objects whose isDirectory() returns true.

List all files in a directory, not including the sub directories if any

Hi,
I have been looking around php.net for a bit and can not work
out how i list the files that are in a directory i.e.
www.site.com/directory/
I would like the names of each file to be placed in an array,
but not to have the sub directories in this list should there be
any.
I was given some code a while ago that done this but it
listed the sub directories and i would like them not in this list.
I do not have this code anymore and do not know where i got
it, so i can not get it amended to what i need.
please can someone tell me what line of code i should be
using.
thank you in advance for your help.

I spotted one error:
foreach($files_array as $file){
echo '<a
href="'.$path.'/'.$file.'">'.$file,'</a>';
should be:
foreach($files_array as $file){
echo '<a
href="'.$path.'/'.$file.'">'.$file.'</a>';
(a dot after $file, not a coma)

List all files in a directory in order of timestamp

have files from directory displayed in an array of columns,using the list icon. however i would like them to be in order of aquisition or timestamp, rather then all 1, 10ns 20s etc.
is there anyway to control the indexing with time stamping order?

LabVIEW allows you to sort just about anything. All you have to do is create a cluster containing everything you want for a "record" and make an array of those clusters. In your case, you want to cluster the file name with its time stamp (how about last modification date?). The sort function (we call them functions or VIs, not icons) will order your array based on the order in which you clustered your elements.
I whipped up a tiny example. Give it a directory path and run it. The output is a list of the filed in that folder sorted according to their time stamp.
If you have some clear specifications for your whole application, consider hiring an Alliance Member (like us). You will end up with a most professional example of LabVIEW code t
o learn from and tweak as you like.

How to list all files and directories in another directory

I need to be able to list all the directories and files in a directory. I need to write a servlet that allows me to create an html page that has a list of files in that directory and also list all the directories. That list of files will be put into an applet tag as a parameter for an applet that I have already written. I am assuming that reading directories/files recursively on a web server will be the same as reading directories/files on a local system, but I don't know how to do that either.

Hi,
Here is a method to rotate through a directory and put all the files into a Vector (files).
 * Iterates throught the files in the root file / directory that is passed
 * as a parameter. The files are loaded into a <code>Vector</code> for
 * processing later.
 * @param file the root directory or the file
 * that you wish to have inspected.
 public void loadFiles(File file) {
 if (file.isDirectory()) {
 File[] entry= file.listFiles();
 for (int i= 0; i < entry.length; i++) {
 if (entry.isFile()) {
 //Add the file to the list
 files.add(entry[i]);
 } else {
 if (entry[i].isDirectory()) {
 //Iterate over the entries again
 loadFiles(entry[i]);
 } else {
 if (file.isFile()) {
 //Add the file
 files.add(file);
See ya

How to get all files in one directory

Hi there,
is there any way to get all the files in one directory?
e.g. a method
File[] getAllFiles(String directory){
Thank you

Just out of interest, which part of the File API was confusing?
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/index.html
If you look down the left-hand side, you'll see a frame listing "All File". If you select "File" from that list, it opens up the API in the right-hand frame. Quite near the top you'll find "listFiles".
I only ask as this (and other questions easily answered by looking at the API) are frequently asked. Did you overlook it when you read the API or did you just not read it?
I really want to know. I think there is scope to cater for that behaviour within this site. A nice API finder would be good; something more intelligent than the search function (which people use less frequently even than the API docs).

How can I create a array with all files from a directory

How can I create a array of files or varchar with all files from a directory?

I thought the example could be improved upon. I've posted a solution on my blog that doesn't require writing the directory list to a table. It simply returns it as a nested table of files as a SQL datatype. You can find it here:

List of files in a directory of app server

Hi,
I was trying to get the list of all files in a directory using fm "EPS2_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING". But the date column is empty in the output table. I also tried fm's
SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST
EPS_GET_FILE_ATTRIBUTES
none of the above is giving date.
Can anyone tell me a fm which gives date along with other attributes?
Thanks in Advance.

How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?

How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?
The following code does not work. isFile() does NOT recognize files as files but only as directories. Why?
Furthermore the size is not retrieved correctly.
How do I have to code it otherwise? Is there a way of not converting f-to-string-to-File again but iterate over all file objects instead?
Thank you
Peter
java.io.File f = new java.io.File("D:/todo/");
files = f.list();
for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
System.out.println("fn=" + files);

 System.out.println("file[" + i + "]=" + files[i] + " size=" + (new File(files[i])).length() ); }

Has anyone resolved the problems with using TNSFormat?
As is, I want to move to a shared server setup and to do that I want to use TNSFormat and point to a tns entry which is setup for IPC+Shared connection.
But the Oracle Home that has the Oracle HTTP Server (from the companion CD) does not have SQL*net installed and does not seem to understand TNS.
I have TNS_ADMIN setup, I have ORACLE_HOME_LISTENER poiting to the DB Home.
for the OHS home, using "sqlplus login/pw@ipcshared" works, but "tnsping ipcshared" does not, since tnsping does not exist in the OHS home.
I cannot install SQL*Net from the CD1, since it requires a dedicated/new home and does not want to install in the OHS Home.
The only format that works in a dedicated OHS Home setup is ServiceNameFormat.
Any help or input would be very helpful.
Regards
ps. This is a redhat linux setup.

Creating list of files from a directory

Hi,
poked around on the internet, and wanted to be able to create an ArrayList of all files in a directory. This code compiles, but doesn't work:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class TestDir {
 public static void main(String[] args){
 File folder = new File("testdir");
 System.out.println("does the folder exist? " + folder.exists());
 System.out.println("is folder a directory? " + folder.isDirectory());
 System.out.println("path: " + folder.getAbsolutePath());
 // create list of files
 try{
 ArrayList<File> files = TestDir.getFileList(folder);
 Iterator i = files.iterator();
 while (i.hasNext()){
 File temp = (File) i.next();
 System.out.println("file: " + temp.getName());
 } catch (IOException e){
 System.err.println("problem creating file list:");
 e.printStackTrace();
 } // end main
 public static ArrayList<File> getFileList(File dir) throws FileNotFoundException{
 ArrayList<File> result = new ArrayList<File>();
 File[] files = dir.listFiles();
 List<File> tempfiles = Arrays.asList(files);
 for(File file : files){
 result.add(file);
 return result;
} // end classthis compiles fine, but doesn't give me the list of files.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

How to list the files in a directory which are recently modififed few mins

Hi,
I need command to list the files in a directory which are modified few minutes ago in SunOS. like "find . -cmin 2 -print " which list files that are modified 2 mins ago in Linux platform.
Thanks in advance.
sudha85

The find command that comes with solaris doesnt have the cmin operator. Only mtime whose option is days.
So install gnu find from sunfreeware which is the same one that comes with linux.

List of Files in a directory

Is there a way that you can get a list of files in a directory that are spelt a certain way? Ex. If in a directory there are html files, txt files, et, In java can I get *.html or a html file with certain text in the name? java.html??
How you can Help
US101

here are the code to list your files
 File startDir = new File("your directory goes here" );
 File[] dirList = startDir.listFiles();
 if (startDir.isDirectory());
 out.print( startDir.getPath() );
 //Start cycling through the array for the file
 for ( int count = 0; count < dirList.length; count++ )
String fileName = dirList[count].getName();
 int index = fileName.lastIndexOf('.');
 String newString = null;
 if (index >= 0)
 newString = fileName.substring(index, fileName.length());
 if ( newString.equalsIgnoreCase( ".txt"))
 if ( dirList[count].isDirectory())
 out.println( dirList[count].getName() );
 else
 out.println( dirList[count].getName());
 }//end else

Finder not displaying all files in remote directory

Sorry, this is a repost as I have gotten no response from my original request here: Finder not displaying all files in remote directory
I've exported pictures from iPhoto on my iMac to a shared directory on my mac mini. When I access that directory from my iMac, I can see some but not all of the pictures. I know the pictures exported properly because I can see them all from the mac mini. I can open up a terminal window on my iMac and see all of the files; I can also open those files from the terminal.
I'm running OSX 10.9.4 on both computers, with the mac mini also running OSX Server. I've placed a screen grab below from my iMac of what Finder sees vs what I can see from the terminal.
Why isn't Finder displaying all of my files?

thanks for responding
Adding a new file to the shared folder results in me being able to see the new file from my clients regardless of where it was added from, however the "hidden" files do not suddenly pop up.
I tried a few more experiments that had interesting results, but still didn't lead me to an answer.
First I tried copying the files from the remote directory to a local directory; I did this in 2 different ways and had different results. Method A) I copied files from the mounted share to a local dir: "cp /Volumes/MyShare/dir/*.JPG .". Method B) I copied the files using secure copy: "scp user@server:/path/to/dir/*.JPG .".
Method A resulted in Finder not being able to see the files in the local directory, while Method B did. This was interesting and lead me to suspect an issue with the way I am sharing the directory on the server. From Server settings I have both afp and smb checked. I tried enabling only one or the other and reconnecting; but this did not fix the problem.
Next I tried exporting the photos from iPhoto again. Exporting them locally results in files that Finder can see. Exporting them to my server results the same bad behavior
Getting desperate, I also tried renaming all of the files from "*.JPG" to "*.jpg" but this didn't help.
One last experiment, I see the same behavior from both another Mac and a PC on my local network... FTP works fine.
Any more ideas?
