How to list the network drive

[Aaliya Seth]

Hello everyone,
Do you have any equivalent method for it. I am trying to list the network drivers of the system.

File[] File.listRoots()

But for readers the list to add them in a JTree.

Hi,
The method listRoot () returns all drives but not the shared directory (I think it should include that in this case). You can use it for the method with getRoot FileSystemView of you who referred to the whole system. By this method you can view all the shared folders and the directories of the system.

Hello,
Here is some information about the listroot() method.
public static File [] listRoots () List the available filesystem roots. A particular Java platform may support zero or more hierarchically-organized file systems. Each file system has a root directory Which from all other files in that file system can be reached. Windows platforms, for example, have a root directory for each active drive; UNIX platforms have a single root directory, namely "/". The set of available filesystem roots is affected by various system-level operations such the insertion or ejection of removable media and the disconnecting or unmounting of physical or virtual disk drives.

Hello,
Ok, so for FileSystemView when I try to instantiate I get an error, I do not why and what that errors means

Can not instantiate the type FileSystemView

Does this method work, and does this method displays all the files and the directories of the system. If so, then how to use this method, I have no idea about it and when I am trying it I am getting an error.

Hello,
I think you are not clear with the basic of the java, I think you shoudl just go through the basics of the java first. Yes, it is a singleton you can not instantiate, that is why you are getting an error when you are trying to run your code.

FileSystemView FSV = FileSystemView.getFileSystemView();

Follow the above syntax and you can run your code successfully.

Hi,
So, the getRoot () return the directory or the files

c: \ doc\ usr \ Desktop

I am trying on this path, to get the files and the directories, but I am getting an error while running the program, so if there is alternative for this, that is any other method for this, then please do post back.
