Java File类总结和FileUtils类

Java File类总结和FileUtils类

文件存在和类型判断

　　创建出File类的对象并不代表该路径下有此文件或目录。

　　用public boolean exists()可以判断文件是否存在。

　　File类的对象可以是目录或者文件。

　　如果是目录，public boolean isDirectory()返回true；

　　如果是文件(非目录则是文件)，public boolean isFile()返回true；

　　但是注意需要先判断文件是否存在，如果文件不存在，上面两个方法都返回false,即不存在的File类对象既不是文件也不是目录。

创建文件

　　public boolean createNewFile()会创建一个新的空文件，只有该文件不存在的时候会创建，如果文件已经存在的话则返回false。

创建文件夹

　　public boolean mkdir()

　　创建目录，成功返回true。只能创建一个文件夹，要求所有的父目录都存在，否则创建失败。

　　public boolean mkdirs()

　　创建目录，成功返回true，会创建所有不存在的父目录。(注意即便最后创建失败，但是也可能创建了一些中间目录)。

　　上面两个方法如果要创建的目录已经存在，不再重新创建，都返回false，只有新建目录返回true。

目录操作

　　列出目录中的文件有以下方法可选：

　　String[] list()

　　String[] list(FilenameFilter filter)

　　返回文件名数组。

　　File[] listFiles()

　　File[] listFiles(FileFilter filter)

　　File[] listFiles(FilenameFilter filter)

　　返回File数组。

　　参数是文件或者文件名过滤器。

　　注意返回为空和返回为null的意义是不同的。

　　若不包含(符合条件的)文件，返回为空。

　　但是如果返回为null，则表明调用方法的File对象可能不是一个目录，或者发生了IO错误。

删除文件

　　boolean delete()方法会删除文件，如果File对象是文件则直接删除，对于目录来说，如果是空目录则直接删除，非空目录则无法删除，返回false。

　　如果要删除的文件不能被删除则会抛出IOException。

　　注意：不论是创建文件、创建目录还是删除文件，只有在动作真正发生的时候会返回true。

FileUtils类

　　在项目中写一些工具类包装通用操作是很有必要的，看了一下apache的FileUtils类，copy了一些方法出来：
