How to get contents of a folder and put into an ArrayList

Question

I want to use

File f = new File(\"C:\\\\\");

to make an ArrayList with the contents of the folder.

I am not very good with buffered

Answer 1

The easiest way of doing that is:

File f = new File("C:\\");
ArrayList files = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(f.listFiles()));

And if what you want is a list of names:

File f = new File("C:\\");
ArrayList names = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(f.list()));
