Java - get the newest file in a directory?

Question

Does anybody have a snippet of Java that can return the newest file in a directory (or knowledge of a library that simplifies this sort of thing)?

Answer 1

public File getLastDownloadedFile() {
    File choice = null;
    try {
        File fl = new File("C:/Users/" + System.getProperty("user.name")
                + "/Downloads/");
        File[] files = fl.listFiles(new FileFilter() {
            public boolean accept(File file) {
                return file.isFile();
            }
        });
//Sleep to download file if not required can be removed
        Thread.sleep(30000);
        long lastMod = Long.MIN_VALUE;

        for (File file : files) {
            if (file.lastModified() > lastMod) {
                choice = file;
                lastMod = file.lastModified();
            }
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println("Exception while getting the last download file :"
                + e.getMessage());
    }
    System.out.println("The last downloaded file is " + choice.getPath());
    System.out.println("The last downloaded file is " + choice.getPath(),true);
    return choice;
}
