Try this. Highlight one of the folders in the tree, type in what you are searching for in the search box below and press ENTER. Modify the code if you just want to show folders and not search for files. (I made this last night for a friend based on others code)

I like your solution for complicated searches, lots of choices, very well done (And I can't think like that (ROFL).

However, The above code I gave is nice and simple for those who don't know anything about such searches and is more easily modifiable for beginners.

I might steal your logic (evil grin) to add extra pattern searching to my simple form if my friend who asked for it buys me a hamburger or two:):)

blueznl · Post by **blueznl** » Fri Apr 02, 2004 10:07 am

if i did mind people stealing or using my code i wouldn't post it

it started the same way as you did, when someone else asked a question on it... don't recall who asked it first, somwhere in the beginner area, then i wrote this up, then i expended it a few times...

i think it's reasonable fast, tried some other solutions but this was the fasted i could come up with... when dumping a full harddisk content speed matters

I had to whip the above code up after a friend asked me what happened to my original fast finder. he was 2 years too late. Did that in 15 minutes and he was drooling ove PB's speed and cursing Window Explorer's slowness.

He is now happy and off my back (at least for a while)

Thanks Fangbeast for your source code.

Thanks blueznl for your help.

why not just use the intergrated filesystem lib in pb?

Let me enlighten you folks with the art of recurse programming.

Code: Select all

Procedure recurseDir(path.s,pat.s,void.l) ;void should be 0
DefType.s r,fileName:DefType.l t
If ExamineDirectory(void,path,"")
 Repeat
  t=NextDirectoryEntry():r=DirectoryEntryName()
  If (t=2) And (PeekB(@r)<>46) ;Because we do not need . & ..
   recurseDir((path+"\"+r),pat,(void+1))
   UseDirectory(void)
  ElseIf (t=1) And (UCase(GetExtensionPart(r))=UCase(pat))
   fileName=path+"\"+r ;fileName contains current filename + path
   PrintN(fileName)    ;You can insert an other code or procedure here
  EndIf
 Until t=0
EndIf
EndProcedure

If OpenConsole()
 Input()
 recurseDir("C:\Program Files","exe",0) ;will list *.exe in Program Files
 Input()
 CloseConsole()
EndIf

You might want to change that check a bit.
".hello" is a valid directory name.

Sure? Because on my OS (win98_se) it isn't

Post by **freak** » Sun Apr 25, 2004 9:56 pm

Here on Win2k, it is valid.

The seperator · Post by **The seperator** » Sun Apr 25, 2004 10:02 pm

OK then. For win2k an xp users should use this code

Code: Select all

Procedure recurseDir(path.s,pat.s,void.l) ;void should be 0
DefType.s r,fileName:DefType.l t
If ExamineDirectory(void,path,"")
 Repeat
  t=NextDirectoryEntry():r=DirectoryEntryName()
  If (t=2) And (r<>".") And (r<>"..") ;Because we do not need . & ..
   recurseDir((path+"\"+r),pat,(void+1))
   UseDirectory(void)
  ElseIf (t=1) And (UCase(GetExtensionPart(r))=UCase(pat))
   fileName=path+"\"+r ;fileName contains current filename + path
   PrintN(fileName)    ;You can insert an other code or procedure here
  EndIf
 Until t=0
EndIf
EndProcedure

If OpenConsole()
 Input()
 recurseDir("C:\Program Files","exe",0) ;will list *.exe in Program Files
 Input()
 CloseConsole()
EndIf

Question t Freak.

Because you have your on homepage and obviously know something about recurse programming maybe you gan give me some ideas. My current project is a chess program and I allready have made a move generator. The only thing to do know is to write AI but how do you tell the computer what move is the best?

Henrik · Post by **Henrik** » Sun Apr 25, 2004 10:25 pm

just wanna say that ".hello" is a valid on my win98 se too

Best regards
