Hello,

i'm trying to zipp .txt files from a folder but i want to know how to select only .txt file. I try my code but it's not working, could any one help me please.

[CODE] here is the code: import java.util.*; import java.util.zip.*; import java.io.*;

public class ZipFile { public static void main(String[] args) {

ZipOutputStream out = null;
InputStream in = null;
try {
    File inputFile1 = new File("c:\\Target\\target.txt");// here i want to say only the directroy where .txt files are stored
    File outputFile = new File("c:\\Target\\Archive_target.zip");//here i want to put zipped file in a different directory

File Dir = new File("c:/Target"); FilenameFilter filter = new FilenameFilter() { public boolean accept(File dir, String name) { return !name.startsWith(".txt"); } }; String[] children = Dir.list(filter);

    OutputStream rawOut = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(outputFile));
    out = new ZipOutputStream(rawOut);

    InputStream rawIn = new FileInputStream(inputFile1);
    in = new BufferedInputStream(rawIn);


    ZipEntry entry = new ZipEntry("c:\\Target\\target.txt");
    out.putNextEntry(entry);
    byte[] buf = new byte[2048];
    int len;
    while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
        out.write(buf, 0, len);
    }
}
catch(IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
finally {
    try {
        if(in != null) {
            in.close();
        }
        if(out != null) {
            out.close();
        }
    }
    catch(IOException ignored)
            { }
}
}

} [/CODE]

Thank you
