String path = "/Users/test/test.txt";
String extension = "";

if (path.contains("."))
     extension = path.substring(path.lastIndexOf("."));

返回. txt”

如果你只想要“txt”，将path.lastIndexOf(“.”)+ 1

JFileChooser怎么样?这并不简单，因为你需要解析它的最终输出…

JFileChooser filechooser = new JFileChooser();
File file = new File("your.txt");
System.out.println("the extension type:"+filechooser.getTypeDescription(file));

这是一个MIME类型…

好吧……我忘了你不想知道它的MIME类型。

下面链接中的有趣代码: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/filechooser.html

/*
 * Get the extension of a file.
 */  
public static String getExtension(File f) {
    String ext = null;
    String s = f.getName();
    int i = s.lastIndexOf('.');

    if (i > 0 &&  i < s.length() - 1) {
        ext = s.substring(i+1).toLowerCase();
    }
    return ext;
}

相关问题: 我如何修剪一个文件扩展名从一个字符串在Java?

在本例中，使用FilenameUtils。getExtension来自Apache Commons IO

下面是一个如何使用它的例子(你可以指定完整路径或只是文件名):

import org.apache.commons.io.FilenameUtils;

// ...

String ext1 = FilenameUtils.getExtension("/path/to/file/foo.txt"); // returns "txt"
String ext2 = FilenameUtils.getExtension("bar.exe"); // returns "exe"

Maven的依赖:

<dependency>
  <groupId>commons-io</groupId>
  <artifactId>commons-io</artifactId>
  <version>2.6</version>
</dependency>

Gradle Groovy DSL

implementation 'commons-io:commons-io:2.6'

Gradle Kotlin DSL

implementation("commons-io:commons-io:2.6")

其他https://search.maven.org/artifact/commons-io/commons-io/2.6/jar

在这里我做了一个小方法(然而不是那么安全，并没有检查很多错误)，但如果只有你在编写一个普通的java程序，这就足够找到文件类型了。这对于复杂的文件类型并不适用，但这些文件类型通常不常用。

    public static String getFileType(String path){
       String fileType = null;
       fileType = path.substring(path.indexOf('.',path.lastIndexOf('/'))+1).toUpperCase();
       return fileType;
}

只是一个基于正则表达式的替代方案。没那么快，也没那么好。

Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("\\.([^.]*)$");
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(fileName);

if (matcher.find()) {
    String ext = matcher.group(1);
}
