I'm creating a program which upload backup files to the cloud server, I want to use wildcard characters to upload all files like "*.txt" or ".jpg".

My code is:

String fileWACrypt = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + "/backup/DMG122.jpg";

but I want

String fileWACrypt = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + "/backup/*.jpg";

Let me confirm, are you looking for a way to get all files in a folder which have a specific extension (i.e a method which returns all, say, **.txt** files in a folder)? – Sufian Nov 19 '14 at 10:36

Look at [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/8647397/4935567) and filter the files as you need. – Masked Man Aug 13 '16 at 17:53
