There are no public methods that return the File, Path or String from FileInputStream.

The best workaround is to wrap FileInputStream, store File in the wrapper class and implement getFile() method.

try this:

if(file.isDirectory())
       {
           File f=file.listFiles();
            for(File name : f)
                pirnt(name.getName());

}
