Load all file in child directories

Hi!

I have problem. I must load to program all file(graphics) in folder, and in all child folder. I know how load, problem is load all images without having their names.
For example:

Quote:

---

Folder:
- image1.gif
- image2.gif
- image3.gif
- folder_child1:
- - image4.gif
- folder_child2:
- - image5.gif
- - image6.gif
- - child_folder_child2:
- - - image7.gif
- - - image8.gif

---

I mean, program loaded all image 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8.
Number and folder names are unknown.

You know how can i resolve problem?

Greetings,
Rafał

PS: Sorry for my bad english.

Have a look at the File class; it can do what you want.

kind regards,

Jos

Ok, I make it.
But now I have this problem:
I need read only folders(directories) and graphist file(example only .gif).

You know, how make it?

You could use a FileFilter?
Or use the predone FileNameExtensionFIlter, and the isDirectory() method on File?

I use:
source.list(FilenameFilter.accept(source, ".gif"));
And it return error.

You don't fancy actually telling us the error, or do we have to guess?

It is example simple code:

Code:

---

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FilenameFilter;

public class lists {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
                String infile = "img/";
                File source = new File(infile);
                String[] files = source.list(FilenameFilter.accept(source, ".gif"));
                for(int i=0;i<files.length;i++)
        {
                        System.out.println(files[i]);   
        }             
    }
}

---

And theye are errors:

Code:

---

Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method accept(File, String) from the type FilenameFilter        lists.java
The method list(FilenameFilter) in the type File is not applicable for the arguments (boolean)

---

You need to create a FilenameFilter object.

When I create a object:

Code:

---

FilenameFilter filter = new FilenameFilter();

---

It is error:

Quote:

---

Cannot intiantiate the type FilenameType

---

When I don't initialize:

Code:

---

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FilenameFilter;
 
public class lists {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String infile = "img/";
        File source = new File(infile);
        FilenameFilter filter;
        String[] files = source.list(filter);
        for(int i=0;i<files.length;i++)
        {
            System.out.println(files[i]);   
        }             
    }
}

---

It is error:

Quote:

---

The local variable filter may not have been initialized

---

Please give the actual errors, not your typed in interpretation of them.

FilenameFilter is an interface.
You have to write the code for it.
