Random file selection

[Guest]

I'm trying to think of a way to select random unknown files from a known
root folder. The files are randomly in sub-folders and sub-sub folders, etc
which I would like to try to select on a fairly arbitrary basis. Is there
any random recursive way to select files from a root folder in the way I'm
trying?

TIA

Hello,
Simple method to read all files in direcory with subdirectories can be
implemented in this way:

public void readDirectory( String directoryPath ) throws Exception {
addDirectory( new File( directoryPath ) );
}
private void addDirectory( File file ) throws Exception {
if( file.isDirectory() ) {
for( File f : file.listFiles() ) {
addDirectory( f );
}
}
else {
addFile( file );
}
}
You have to implement addFile( File file ); method.

Best Regards
