List files with with java.io.File and java.io.FilenameFilter. Parse creation date from suffix's timestamp with java.lang.String and java.util.Date. Calculate date difference with java.util.Calendar. Delete file if difference greater than 4.

Hi all,

 

I'm creating a file using  new FileOutputStream(fileName) ,where fileName is composed of a prefix taken with System.getProperty("OutFile", "\\Out") and the suffix is the current timestamp.

 

The thing is, I want to be able to delete all files with the same prefix that are older than X days (where X is also a parameter).

 

How do I do that?

 

Thanks,

 

Ron Sher
