Use 'recursion', e.g.

<sscce>
import java.io.*;

class IterateDirectoryTree {

   /** Does something with each file. */
   static void doSomething( File f ) {
      // simply dump the name to std out..
      System.out.println(f);
   }

   /** Calls doSomething() with each file, but
   also recursively calls itself, for directories. */
   static void getFiles(File f) {
      String[] content = f.list();
      for (int ii=0; ii<content.length; ii++) {
         File temp = new File(f, content[ii]);
         if (temp.isFile()) {
            doSomething( temp );
         } else {
            getFiles( temp );
         }
      }
   }

   public static void main(String[] args) {
      getFiles( new
         File( System.getProperty("java.home") ) );
   }
}
</sscce>
