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);

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());
        }

      }
    }
  }
}

在Java 8中，你可以这样做

Files.walk(Paths.get("/path/to/folder"))
     .filter(Files::isRegularFile)
     .forEach(System.out::println);

它将打印文件夹中的所有文件，同时排除所有目录。如果你需要一个列表，下面的方法可以做到:

Files.walk(Paths.get("/path/to/folder"))
     .filter(Files::isRegularFile)
     .collect(Collectors.toList())

如果你想返回List<File>而不是List<Path>，只需映射它:

List<File> filesInFolder = Files.walk(Paths.get("/path/to/folder"))
                                .filter(Files::isRegularFile)
                                .map(Path::toFile)
                                .collect(Collectors.toList());

您还需要确保关闭流!否则，您可能会遇到一个异常，告诉您打开的文件太多。阅读这里了解更多信息。

从Test文件夹中列出类路径内的文件

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class Hello {

    public static void main(final String[] args) throws IOException {

        System.out.println("List down all the files present on the server directory");
        File file1 = new File("/prog/FileTest/src/Test");
        File[] files = file1.listFiles();
        if (null != files) {
            for (int fileIntList = 0; fileIntList < files.length; fileIntList++) {
                String ss = files[fileIntList].toString();
                if (null != ss && ss.length() > 0) {
                    System.out.println("File: " + (fileIntList + 1) + " :" + ss.substring(ss.lastIndexOf("\\") + 1, ss.length()));
                }
            }
        }


    }


}

File directory = new File("/user/folder");      
File[] myarray;  
myarray=new File[10];
myarray=directory.listFiles();
for (int j = 0; j < myarray.length; j++)
{
       File path=myarray[j];
       FileReader fr = new FileReader(path);
       BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr);
       String s = "";
       while (br.ready()) {
          s += br.readLine() + "\n";
       }
}

使用Java 1.7来递归列出命令行指定目录中的文件的简单示例:

import java.io.File;

public class List {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (String f : args) {
            listDir(f);
        }
    }

    private static void listDir(String dir) {
        File f = new File(dir);
        File[] list = f.listFiles();

        if (list == null) {
            return;
        }

        for (File entry : list) {
            System.out.println(entry.getName());
            if (entry.isDirectory()) {
                listDir(entry.getAbsolutePath());
            }
        }
    }
}
