Java selection of files based on its types

Daily we are getting some datafiles to our unix server location FTPIN.

Incoming File names will be present in the location "/xyz/test/" as below:

"infile_A1_YYYYMMDD",
"infile_A2_YYYYMMDD",
"infile_B1_YYYYMMDD",
"infile_C1_YYYYMMDD"
"infile_C2_YYYYMMDD"

Where A, B and C are the different file types with the number of files (1,2,3..) for that type.

There will be a file indicator for these file types either "Y" or "N" declared in
seperate file (PCP file) as below:

export A=Y
export B=N
export C=Y

Iam executing this PCP file to setup the values before running my script.

I've to create a script to select the files which has the file indicator as "Y"
for the files types A, B and C and extract the data records from these files to a single file.

My question is how to check the file indicator for these file types which is declared in some other script
through my script? Also how to select the files which has the file type as "Y"?


Please guide me...

With Regards / Mysore Ganapati

Several attributes or groups can be specified, separated by comma. OPTIONS
The following options are understood: -?, --help Prints a short help text and exits. -a, --attributes=ATTRIBUTES The attributes to get, specified as a comma-separated list of gvfs file attribute names. -h, --hidden Show hidden files. -l, --long Use a long listing format. -c, --show-completions=PREFIX Show only filenames starting with PREFIX. -n, --nofollow-symlinks Don't follow symlinks.
