Method Detail

file

public static java.io.File file(java.io.File f,
                                java.lang.String... s)

Constructs a file from a folder, subfolder names and a filename

extension

public static java.lang.String extension(java.io.File f)

Returns the extension of a filename

extension

public static java.lang.String extension(java.lang.String f)

Returns the extension of a filename with dot

newExtension

public static java.io.File newExtension(java.io.File f,
                                        java.lang.String newex)

Exchanges the extension of a filename. This is different from newExtension(String) because the "last dot" may be in the folder name, if the file itself has no extension

newExtension

public static java.lang.String newExtension(java.lang.String f,
                                            java.lang.String newex)

Exchanges the extension of a filename

noExtension

public static java.lang.String noExtension(java.lang.String f)

Deletes the file extension

noExtension

public static java.io.File noExtension(java.io.File f)

Deletes the file extension

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] argv)
