How to check the extension of a Java 7 Path

Question

I\'d like to check if a Path (introduced in Java 7) ends with a certain extension. I tried the endsWith() method like so:

Path path = Paths.get         


        

Answer 1

There is no way to do this directly on the Path object itself.

There are two options I can see:

1. Convert the Path to a File and call endsWith on the String returned by File.getName()
2. Call toString on the Path and call endsWith on that String.
