Hi All,

I have a folder with lots of file. Is there any way that I read each
file of this folder using Java?

Thanks

Sure, you can make a File from a folder. Look closely
at the File methods for your answer.

The main class to do with file names is java.io.File. It has
a method for getting the names of the files in a directory
as File[], among other things.
