[bash] Loop through all the files with a specific extension

the correct answer is @chepner's

EXT=java
for i in *.${EXT}; do
    ...
done

however, here's a small trick to check whether a filename has a given extensions:

EXT=java
for i in *; do
    if [ "${i}" != "${i%.${EXT}}" ];then
        echo "I do something with the file $i"
    fi
done
