Avoid Java 8 Files.walk(..) termination cause of ( java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException ) [duplicate]

I am using Java 8 Files.walk(..) to count .mp3 files contained inside a folder and all the folders inside it. In other words, I am visiting all the levels of the file tree.

When I get java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException the Stream closes, I don't want this behavior. I need it to ignore or print the exception and continue counting files. Below is the code I use :) :

   /**
     * Count files in a directory (including files in all sub
     * directories)
     * 
     * @param directory
     *        the directory to start in
     * @return the total number of files
     */
    public int countFiles(File dir) {
        if (dir.exists())
            try (Stream<Path> paths = Files.walk(Paths.get(dir.getPath()), FileVisitOption.FOLLOW_LINKS)) {
                return (int) paths.filter(path -> {

                    // i am using something different here but i changed
                    // it just for the purpose of StackOverFlow question                                
                    return path.toString().contains(".mp3");

                }).count();
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                //Main.logger.log(Level.WARNING, "", ex);
                ex.printStackTrace();
            }

        return 0;
    }

Answer

Here is a temporary solution , which can be improved to use Java 8 Streams and Lambdas.

int[] count = {0};
try {
    Files.walkFileTree(
            Paths.get(dir.getPath()), 
            new HashSet<FileVisitOption>(Arrays.asList(FileVisitOption.FOLLOW_LINKS)),
            Integer.MAX_VALUE, new SimpleFileVisitor<Path>() {
                @Override
                public FileVisitResult visitFile(Path file, BasicFileAttributes attrs) 
                        throws IOException {
                    System.out.printf("Visiting file %s\n", file);
                    ++count[0];
                    return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
                }
                
                @Override
                public FileVisitResult visitFileFailed(Path file, IOException e) 
                        throws IOException {
                    System.err.printf("Visiting failed for %s\n", file);
                    return FileVisitResult.SKIP_SUBTREE;
                }
                
                @Override
                public FileVisitResult preVisitDirectory(Path dir,
                                                         BasicFileAttributes attrs) 
                        throws IOException {
                    System.out.printf("About to visit directory %s\n", dir);
                    return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
                }
            });
} catch (IOException e) {
    // handle exception
