How to unzip files recursively in Java?

Question

I have zip file which contains some other zip files.

For example, the mail file is abc.zip and it contains xyz.zip, class1.java

Answer 1

File dir = new File("BASE DIRECTORY PATH");
FileFilter ff = new FileFilter() {

    @Override
    public boolean accept(File f) {
        //only want zip files
        return (f.isFile() && f.getName().toLowerCase().endsWith(".zip"));
    }
};

File[] list = null;
while ((list = dir.listFiles(ff)).length > 0) {
    File file1 = list[0];
    //TODO unzip the file to the base directory
}
