It provide two instance:
1. LASTMODIFIED_COMPARATOR: Last modified comparator instance
2. LASTMODIFIED_REVERSE: Reverse last modified comparator instance
Example
1. Read files from old to new
/**
* The main method.
*
* @param args
* the arguments
*/
public static void main(String args[]) {
Collection files =
FileUtils.listFiles(new File(FmsBatchConfig.INPUT_FOLDER_PATH), // assign file path
FileFilterUtils.prefixFileFilter("COP0407"), // assign file name
FalseFileFilter.FALSE);// include subdirectories
File[] fileArr = files.toArray(new File[files.size()]);
Arrays.sort(fileArr, LastModifiedFileComparator.LASTMODIFIED_COMPARATOR);//from old to new
// print file name
for (File file : fileArr) {
System.out.println(file.getName()+"["+new Date(file.lastModified())+"]");
}
}
The console will print
COP0407_01_1030501.txt[Thu May 08 16:45:01 CST 2014]
COP0407_01_1030502.txt[Fri May 23 10:31:45 CST 2014]
2. Read files from new to old
/**
* The main method.
*
* @param args
* the arguments
*/
public static void main(String args[]) {
Collection files =
FileUtils.listFiles(new File(FmsBatchConfig.INPUT_FOLDER_PATH), // assign file path
FileFilterUtils.prefixFileFilter("COP0407"), // assign file name
FalseFileFilter.FALSE);// include subdirectories
File[] fileArr = files.toArray(new File[files.size()]);
Arrays.sort(fileArr, LastModifiedFileComparator.LASTMODIFIED_REVERSE);//from new to old
// print file name
for (File file : fileArr) {
System.out.println(file.getName()+"["+new Date(file.lastModified())+"]");
}
}
The console will print
COP0407_01_1030502.txt[Fri May 23 10:31:45 CST 2014]
