How to print the hierarchy of directory?
SolutionFollowing example shows how to print the hierarchy of a specified directory using file.getName() and file.listFiles() method of File class.
import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; public class FileUtil { public static void main(String[] a)throws IOException{ showDir(1, new File("d:\\Java")); } static void showDir(int indent, File file) throws IOException { for (int i = 0; i < indent; i++) System.out.print('-'); System.out.println(file.getName()); if (file.isDirectory()) { File[] files = file.listFiles(); for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++)showDir(indent + 4, files[i]); } } }Result
The above code sample will produce the following result.
-Java -----codes ---------string.txt ---------array.txt -----tutorial
The following is an another sample example of hierarchy of directory in Java
import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; public class FileUtil { public static void main(String[] a)throws IOException { showDir(1, new File("C:\\Users\\TutorialsPoint7\\Desktop")); } static void showDir(int indent, File file) throws IOException { for (int i = 0; i < indent; i++)System.out.print('-'); System.out.println(file.getName()); if (file.isDirectory()) { File[] files = file.listFiles(); for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++)showDir(indent + 4, files[i]); } } }
The above code sample will produce the following result.
-Desktop -----abc.png -----abc.txt -----bbc.txt -----Custom CSS.txt -----desktop.ini
