In my application I am placing documents into a mySQL database from a
Java client application. All is well for ordinary files but I am
having problems with files that are in fact directories. The files
in question are Keynote and Pages files. These files turn out not to
be files but directories in much the same way as Applications are
directories. They are directories with the extension ".pages" and
".key".
I don't want to know what types of "files" I am dealing with but I do
want to know whether I am dealing with a real directory or a
directory masquerading as a file (or application).
What is the best way to determine this? Is it to check first of all
whether Java believes that the file is a directory or not (using
aFile.isDirectory()) and if it is then check to see if the name has
an extension or not?
Best Regards,
Ian Cheyne
