How to get file name Posted: Mar 29, 2002 2:29 PM

I have to read all the files in a certain directory, use its name as a reference, open file by file, read the content, store certain key contents. I don't need to search for the files, as they will always be in the same directory. But how to go to this directory and store the name of the files in a list?

Thanks!

Okay... okay... I got it myself. But for those who get desperate with those little questions, there you go:

//to point to a directory and read the file names

File path = new File("C:/DirectoryName/DatabaseName/");

String[] list;

list = path.list();
for(int i = 0; i<list.length; i++)
System.out.println(list);
