How to check if a directory is empty ?


Get the listing of directory and check its length to know if directory is empty

Example
File file = new File("C:\\folder");

if (file.isDirectory()) {
  if(file.list().length > 0) {
    System.out.println("Directory is not empty !");
  } else {
    System.out.println("Directory is empty !");
  }
} else {
  System.out.println("This is not a directory");

}
