这是一种经过测试的方法
public static String getExtension(String fileName) {
char ch;
int len;
if(fileName==null ||
(len = fileName.length())==0 ||
(ch = fileName.charAt(len-1))=='/' || ch=='\\' || //in the case of a directory
ch=='.' ) //in the case of . or ..
return "";
int dotInd = fileName.lastIndexOf('.'),
sepInd = Math.max(fileName.lastIndexOf('/'), fileName.lastIndexOf('\\'));
if( dotInd<=sepInd )
return "";
else
return fileName.substring(dotInd+1).toLowerCase();
}
和测试用例:
@Test
public void testGetExtension() {
assertEquals("", getExtension("C"));
assertEquals("ext", getExtension("C.ext"));
assertEquals("ext", getExtension("A/B/C.ext"));
assertEquals("", getExtension("A/B/C.ext/"));
assertEquals("", getExtension("A/B/C.ext/.."));
assertEquals("bin", getExtension("A/B/C.bin"));
assertEquals("hidden", getExtension(".hidden"));
assertEquals("dsstore", getExtension("/user/home/.dsstore"));
assertEquals("", getExtension(".strange."));
assertEquals("3", getExtension("1.2.3"));
assertEquals("exe", getExtension("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\java\\bin\\javaw.exe"));
}
