Using File.listFiles with FileNameExtensionFilter

by

The FileNameExtensionFilter class is intended for Swing to be used in a JFileChooser.

Try using a FilenameFilter instead. For example:

File dir = new File("/users/blah/dirname");
File[] files = dir.listFiles(new FilenameFilter() {
    public boolean accept(File dir, String name) {
        return name.toLowerCase().endsWith(".txt");
    }
});
