Hi,

Here is sample code to get file extension in Java:

package examples;

import java.io.File;

public class GetFileExtension {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
      File file = new File("c:/Deepak/1.jpg");
       String extension="";
        try {
            if (file != null && file.exists()) {
                String name = file.getName();
                extension = name.substring(name.lastIndexOf(".")+1);
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            extension = "";
        }
        System.out.println("File Exentsion:"+extension);
    }

}

Thanks

Hi,

You can also use:

String extension = FilenameUtils.getExtension(file.getName());

Thanks

Hi,

Here is example using FilenameUtils.getExtension(file.getName())

package examples;

import java.io.File;

import org.apache.commons.io.FilenameUtils;

public class GetFileExtension2 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
      File file = new File("c:/Deepak/1.jpg");
      String extension = FilenameUtils.getExtension(file.getName());
      System.out.println("File Exentsion:"+extension);
    }

}

Thanks
