Hi,

How do I retrieve a list of files from a particular folder? I browsed
through the WINAPI Class but did not find any.

Thank you

static void PBO_ListDirFiles(Args _args)
{
FilePath filePath = "c:\\";
FileNameFilter fileFilter = ["*.*", "All files"];

FileName fileName;
int fileHandle;

;

// Get first file in directory
[fileHandle, fileName] = WinAPI::findFirstFile(strFmt("%1\\%2",
filePath, conPeek(fileFilter, 1)));

// While files found
while(fileName)
{
// ------------------------------------------
// Filepath and filename are known here...
// ------------------------------------------
info(strFmt("%1%2", filePath, fileName));

// Get next file
fileName = winAPI::findNextFile(fileHandle);
}
}
