Is there a File.list filter?

[adrianjohnson]

I'm trying to list files in a directory using list(), and wondered if there is a way I can filter the list to show files with a certain extension.

(I would Search, but it's under routine maintenance at the moment!)

Thanks for your help,

list() method accepts a FileNameFilter parameter or something like that.

That allows you to set a filter for any conditions on the filename, including extensios.

Take a look at java.io.File API.

Yes, I did read that, but found the examples confusing.

Just google FileNameFilter and you will find a lot of examples.

For example:
