关于这个主题的所有使用Java 8新函数的答案都忽略了关闭流。接受的答案中的例子应该是:

try (Stream<Path> filePathStream=Files.walk(Paths.get("/home/you/Desktop"))) {
    filePathStream.forEach(filePath -> {
        if (Files.isRegularFile(filePath)) {
            System.out.println(filePath);
        }
    });
}

从文件的javadoc。走路的方法:

返回的流封装了一个或多个directorystream。如果 需要及时处理文件系统资源 应该使用Try-with-resources构造来确保 流的close方法在流操作完成后调用。

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());
        }

      }
    }
  }
}

void getFiles(){
        String dirPath = "E:/folder_name";
        File dir = new File(dirPath);
        String[] files = dir.list();
        if (files.length == 0) {
            System.out.println("The directory is empty");
        } else {
            for (String aFile : files) {
                System.out.println(aFile);
            }
        }
    }

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);

上面有很多很好的答案，这里有一种不同的方法:在maven项目中，您放在resources文件夹中的所有内容都会默认复制到target/classes文件夹中。查看在运行时可用的内容

 ClassLoader contextClassLoader = 
 Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
    URL resource = contextClassLoader.getResource("");
    File file = new File(resource.toURI());
    File[] files = file.listFiles();
    for (File f : files) {
        System.out.println(f.getName());
    }

现在要从一个特定的文件夹中获取文件，假设你的资源文件夹中有一个名为“res”的文件夹，只需替换:

URL resource = contextClassLoader.getResource("res");

如果你想访问你的com.companyName包，那么:

contextClassLoader.getResource("com.companyName");
