Listing all files in a specified folder
The code below shows how to use the System.IO.DirectoryInfo function to retreive all the files in the specified
location, it also show how to get the extension and size aswell. You will have to parse a folder location such as c:\
to the parameter Location. You need one listview1 control
//FIND ALL FILES IN FOLDER
System.IO.DirectoryInfo dir = new System.IO.DirectoryInfo(Location);
foreach (System.IO.FileInfo f in dir.GetFiles("*.*"))
{
//LOAD FILES
ListViewItem lSingleItem = listView1.Items.Add(f.Name);
//SUB ITEMS
lSingleItem.SubItems.Add(Convert.ToString(f.Length));
lSingleItem.SubItems.Add(f.Extension);
}
Listing all folders in a specified folder
This example is similer to the above file routine, but uses dir.GetDirectories to find the folders. In this example
you need one treeView control.
//FIND ALL FOLDERS IN FOLDER
TreeNode Main = treeView1.Nodes.Add("Folders in: " + Location);
Main.Tag = "";
foreach (System.IO.DirectoryInfo g in dir.GetDirectories())
{
//LOAD FOLDERS
TreeNode MainNext = Main.Nodes.Add(g.FullName);
MainNext.Tag = (g.FullName);
}
