Is there a way to read a file directory

Best java friends

Is there a way to read a file directory in a specific folder inside the work directory form a applet . The following code does not work in an applet:

directory = new File(dirname);
if (directory.isDirectory() == false) {
if (directory.exists() == false)
…………
files = directory.list(); // stores the list of file names

This code will list all the files in a given directory. In this case its '.' which is the current working directory:

Code:

String path = ".";
File folder = new File(path);
File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles(); 
	   
for (int i = 0; i < listOfFiles.length; i++) {
		
if (listOfFiles[i].isFile()) {
files = listOfFiles[i].getName();

System.out.println(files);

 }
}
