I tried to write the following code, but it does not work.

public File[] finder(String dirName) {
    File dir = new File(dirName);

    return dir.listFiles(new FilenameFilter() {
        @Override
        public boolean accept(File dir, String filename) {
            return filename.endsWith(".txt");
        }
    });
}

We can't guess the error. Tell us, then maybe we can help. – JP Moresmau Apr 26 '15 at 16:19
I usually don't use a FilenameFilter, but I check the extension myself and then I add each file to a list. But I think your usage is more correct – SomethingSomething Apr 26 '15 at 16:55
