给出两条绝对路径,例如

/var/data/stuff/xyz.dat
/var/data

如何创建一个以第二条路径为基础的相对路径?在上面的例子中,结果应该是:./stuff/xyz.dat

在Java 7及以后的版本中,你可以简单地使用(与URI相比,它没有错误):

Path#relativize(Path)

其他回答

ant有一个带有getRelativePath方法的FileUtils类。我自己还没有尝试过,但是值得一试。

http://javadoc.haefelinger.it/org.apache.ant/1.7.1/org/apache/tools/ant/util/FileUtils.html getRelativePath (java.io.File java.io.File)

我的版本大致基于马特和史蒂夫的版本:

/**
 * Returns the path of one File relative to another.
 *
 * @param target the target directory
 * @param base the base directory
 * @return target's path relative to the base directory
 * @throws IOException if an error occurs while resolving the files' canonical names
 */
 public static File getRelativeFile(File target, File base) throws IOException
 {
   String[] baseComponents = base.getCanonicalPath().split(Pattern.quote(File.separator));
   String[] targetComponents = target.getCanonicalPath().split(Pattern.quote(File.separator));

   // skip common components
   int index = 0;
   for (; index < targetComponents.length && index < baseComponents.length; ++index)
   {
     if (!targetComponents[index].equals(baseComponents[index]))
       break;
   }

   StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
   if (index != baseComponents.length)
   {
     // backtrack to base directory
     for (int i = index; i < baseComponents.length; ++i)
       result.append(".." + File.separator);
   }
   for (; index < targetComponents.length; ++index)
     result.append(targetComponents[index] + File.separator);
   if (!target.getPath().endsWith("/") && !target.getPath().endsWith("\\"))
   {
     // remove final path separator
     result.delete(result.length() - File.separator.length(), result.length());
   }
   return new File(result.toString());
 }

在Java 7及以后的版本中,你可以简单地使用(与URI相比,它没有错误):

Path#relativize(Path)

如果路径在JRE 1.5运行时或maven插件中不可用

package org.afc.util;

import java.io.File;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;

public class FileUtil {

    public static String getRelativePath(String basePath, String filePath)  {
        return getRelativePath(new File(basePath), new File(filePath));
    }

    public static String getRelativePath(File base, File file)  {

        List<String> bases = new LinkedList<String>();
        bases.add(0, base.getName());
        for (File parent = base.getParentFile(); parent != null; parent = parent.getParentFile()) {
            bases.add(0, parent.getName());
        }

        List<String> files = new LinkedList<String>();
        files.add(0, file.getName());
        for (File parent = file.getParentFile(); parent != null; parent = parent.getParentFile()) {
            files.add(0, parent.getName());
        }

        int overlapIndex = 0;
        while (overlapIndex < bases.size() && overlapIndex < files.size() && bases.get(overlapIndex).equals(files.get(overlapIndex))) {
            overlapIndex++;
        }

        StringBuilder relativePath = new StringBuilder();
        for (int i = overlapIndex; i < bases.size(); i++) {
            relativePath.append("..").append(File.separatorChar);
        }

        for (int i = overlapIndex; i < files.size(); i++) {
            relativePath.append(files.get(i)).append(File.separatorChar);
        }

        relativePath.deleteCharAt(relativePath.length() - 1);
        return relativePath.toString();
    }

}

我知道这有点晚了,但是,我创建了一个解决方案,适用于任何java版本。

    public static String getRealtivePath(File root, File file) 
    {
        String path = file.getPath();
        String rootPath = root.getPath();
        boolean plus1 = path.contains(File.separator);
        return path.substring(path.indexOf(rootPath) + rootPath.length() + (plus1 ? 1 : 0));
    }
