Android: how to get a directory list ordered by name or by date descending?

Question

I\'m able to do this:

    File images = new File(path);  
    File[] imageList = images.listFiles(new FilenameFilter(){  
        public boolean accept(File

If you want to sort date wise then choose below code, and if you want name then already answer is above :)

File f = new File("/home/myfiles");
File [] files = f.listFiles();
Arrays.sort( files, new Comparator(){
public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {

    if (((File)o1).lastModified() > ((File)o2).lastModified()) {
        return -1;
    } else if (((File)o1).lastModified() < ((File)o2).lastModified()) {
        return +1;
    } else {
        return 0;
    }
}
});
