Getting path of a pdf in android

Question

Friends I am trying to get path of the pdf's for my app. Suppose there are n number of pdf's in your android phone(may be in root dir or sdcard) then how could you get there path programmatically ? Could some one please suggest me some hints ?

Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

File images = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
imagelist = images.listFiles(new FilenameFilter()
{
public boolean accept(File dir, String name)
{
return ((name.endsWith(".pdf")));
}
});
pdflist = new String[imagelist.length];
for(int i = 0;i<imagelist.length;i++)
{
pdflist[i] = imagelist[i].getName();
}
