Question

Hi guys When I try to get list of files inside a directory it just returns image files and subdirectories... File file = new File("/sdcard/Documents"); String[] list = file.list(); for (String s: list) { System.out.println(s); } output: p0.png p1.svg directory. But directory contents are: p0.png , p1.svg , directory , c0.css, m0.mp4 What's the problem?

Hi, Use this way var targetDirectory= @ "/sdcard/Documents" ; string [] fileEntries = Directory.GetFiles(targetDirectory); foreach(string fileName in fileEntries) { System.out.println(fileName); } Regards Rijwan

Hi Deva, You can get list of files inside a directory using "GetFiles" instead of "File" as following: foreach ( string fileName in System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(@ "D:\sdcard\Documents2" )) { Console.WriteLine(System.IO.Path.GetFileName(( new System.IO.FileInfo(fileName)).FullName)); } For more detail abount " GetFiles " instead of " File " you can refer below articles: Get Files from Directory [C#] https://www.csharp-examples.net/get-files-from-directory/ Working With File Class In C# https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/rohatash/working-with-file-class-in-C-Sharp/ Hope, this will help you!
