    Your best friend should be the API. The File class (a File instance can represent a directory) has several methods worth checking out.

    Java Platform SE 6

    Also, Java 7 includes several additions that might help you out.

    File I/O (Featuring NIO.2) (The Java™ Tutorials > Essential Classes > Basic I/O)
