List files of directory with thousands of files

[marcotv]

Hi guys,

I want o list of files of a directory.

I usually use _FileListToArray

In this case i have a directory with 200000 files or more.

Can i use _FileListToArray or there could be a problem of memory?

is there another solution without using an array?

BTW you can use this WIN stadart method for get list.I usually using this way:

#include <Array.au3>
#include <File.au3>
Dim $avarray

RunWait("cmd.exe /c " & "DIR /A /D /B *.*>"&@TempDir&"\dirs.ini",@ScriptDir,@SW_HIDE)
;MsgBox(64,"",FileRead(@TempDir&"\dirs.ini"))
_FileReadToArray(@TempDir&"\dirs.ini",$avarray)
_ArrayDisplay($avarray,"List of Files and dirs")

My doubt was in having an array of 200000 items or more.

Is an array of 200000 items too bigger? there could be problems of memory (memory leak ecc)?

What are the current technical limits of AutoIt v3?

Arrays: A maximum of 64 dimensions and/or a total of 16 million elements
