Java Examples - Compare File Paths
The following example demonstrates using the File class's filename.compareTo(another filename) method to compare whether two file paths are in the same directory:
Main.java file
import java.io.File;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
File file1 = new File("C:/File/demo1.txt");
File file2 = new File("C:/java/demo1.txt");
if(file1.compareTo(file2) == 0) {
System.out.println("File paths are the same!");
} else {
System.out.println("File paths are different!");
}
}
}
The output of running the above code is:
