为了扩展已接受的答案，我将文件名存储到一个数组列表中(而不是仅仅将它们转储到System.out.println)，我创建了一个帮助类“MyFileUtils”，这样它就可以被其他项目导入:

class MyFileUtils {
    public static void loadFilesForFolder(final File folder, List<String> fileList){
        for (final File fileEntry : folder.listFiles()) {
            if (fileEntry.isDirectory()) {
                loadFilesForFolder(fileEntry, fileList);
            } else {
                fileList.add( fileEntry.getParent() + File.separator + fileEntry.getName() );
            }
        }
    }
}

我在文件名中添加了完整路径。 你可以这样使用它:

import MyFileUtils;

List<String> fileList = new ArrayList<String>();
final File folder = new File("/home/you/Desktop");
MyFileUtils.loadFilesForFolder(folder, fileList);

// Dump file list values
for (String fileName : fileList){
    System.out.println(fileName);
}

数组列表是通过“value”传递的，但是value是用来指向JVM堆中的同一个数组列表对象的。这样，每次递归调用都将文件名添加到同一个ArrayList中(我们并不是在每次递归调用时创建一个新的ArrayList)。

在Java 7及更高版本中，您可以使用listdir

Path dir = ...;
try (DirectoryStream<Path> stream = Files.newDirectoryStream(dir)) {
    for (Path file: stream) {
        System.out.println(file.getFileName());
    }
} catch (IOException | DirectoryIteratorException x) {
    // IOException can never be thrown by the iteration.
    // In this snippet, it can only be thrown by newDirectoryStream.
    System.err.println(x);
}

您还可以创建一个过滤器，然后将其传递给上面的newDirectoryStream方法

DirectoryStream.Filter<Path> filter = new DirectoryStream.Filter<Path>() {
    public boolean accept(Path file) throws IOException {
        try {
            return (Files.isRegularFile(path));
        } catch (IOException x) {
            // Failed to determine if it's a file.
            System.err.println(x);
            return false;
        }
    }
};

有关其他过滤示例，[参见文档]。(http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/dirs.html#glob)

给定一个baseDir，列出它下面的所有文件和目录，迭代编写。

    public static List<File> listLocalFilesAndDirsAllLevels(File baseDir) {

    List<File>  collectedFilesAndDirs   = new ArrayList<>();
    Deque<File> remainingDirs           = new ArrayDeque<>();

    if(baseDir.exists()) {
        remainingDirs.add(baseDir);

        while(!remainingDirs.isEmpty()) {
            File dir = remainingDirs.removeLast();
            List<File> filesInDir = Arrays.asList(dir.listFiles());
            for(File fileOrDir : filesInDir)  {
                collectedFilesAndDirs.add(fileOrDir);
                if(fileOrDir.isDirectory()) {
                    remainingDirs.add(fileOrDir);
                }
            }
        }
    }

    return collectedFilesAndDirs;
}

import java.io.File;


public class ReadFilesFromFolder {
  public static File folder = new File("C:/Documents and Settings/My Documents/Downloads");
  static String temp = "";

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    System.out.println("Reading files under the folder "+ folder.getAbsolutePath());
    listFilesForFolder(folder);
  }

  public static void listFilesForFolder(final File folder) {

    for (final File fileEntry : folder.listFiles()) {
      if (fileEntry.isDirectory()) {
        // System.out.println("Reading files under the folder "+folder.getAbsolutePath());
        listFilesForFolder(fileEntry);
      } else {
        if (fileEntry.isFile()) {
          temp = fileEntry.getName();
          if ((temp.substring(temp.lastIndexOf('.') + 1, temp.length()).toLowerCase()).equals("txt"))
            System.out.println("File= " + folder.getAbsolutePath()+ "\\" + fileEntry.getName());
        }

      }
    }
  }
}

private static final String ROOT_FILE_PATH="/";
File f=new File(ROOT_FILE_PATH);
File[] allSubFiles=f.listFiles();
for (File file : allSubFiles) {
    if(file.isDirectory())
    {
        System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath()+" is directory");
        //Steps for directory
    }
    else
    {
        System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath()+" is file");
        //steps for files
    }
}

防止listFiles()函数的nullpointerexception，并递归地从子目录中获取所有文件。

 public void listFilesForFolder(final File folder,List<File> fileList) {
    File[] filesInFolder = folder.listFiles();
    if (filesInFolder != null) {
        for (final File fileEntry : filesInFolder) {
            if (fileEntry.isDirectory()) {
            listFilesForFolder(fileEntry,fileList);
        } else {
            fileList.add(fileEntry);
        }
     }
    }
 }

 List<File> fileList = new List<File>();
 final File folder = new File("/home/you/Desktop");
 listFilesForFolder(folder);
