This example shows how to compare paths of two files in a same directory by the use of filename.compareTo(another filename) method of File class.
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("Both paths are same!");
} else {
System.out.println("Paths are not same!");
}
}
}
Result:
The above code sample will produce the following result.
