; Syntax.........: _FileListToArrayEx($sPath[, $sFilter = "*"[, $iFlag = 0]])
; Parameters ....: $sPath   - Path to generate filelist for.

;                 $iFlag   - Optional: specifies whether to return files folders or both Or Full Path (add the flags together for multiple operations):
;                 |$iFlag = 0 (Default) Return both files and folders
;                 |$iFlag = 1 Return files only
;                 |$iFlag = 2 Return Folders only
;                 |$iFlag = 4 Search SubDirectory

;                 |$iFlag = 16 $sFilter do Case-Sensitive matching (By Default $sFilter do Case-Insensitive matching)
;                 |$iFlag = 32 Disable the return the count in the first element - effectively makes the array 0-based (must use UBound() to get the size in this case).

Perhaps a Developers, Moderator, MVP or other, perhaps need to review this (see if need anything else to repair improve something or other), and perhaps use this to defualt (and the same code, the one defined by default, only it was updated), as it seems that the code more clean (39 line) and I think works faster, so maybe it also closes the history of _FileListToArray + Search subdirectory

sorry for my English

Ciao a tutti.

The SmOke_N FileListToArrayEx function presents two problems with regard to that of the DXRW4E :

1st : She's more slowly (we talk about some ms, so it's not really important)

2nd : The return are not true, because if I search for this _FileListToArrayEx2(@WindowsDir, "*.dll", 1), it return me files like this C:WINDOWSInstaller$PatchCache$Managed5C1093C35543A0E32A41B090A305076A4.0.30319system.net.dll_x86

Hmm, that's an expected return. That is a mask search, not an extension search.

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

Not trying to pick on you.. but you cant call it 39 lines, or call it clean when you have a line like this in your code:

Local $hWSearch = $hSearch, $hWSTMP = $hSearch, $SearchWD, $FPath = StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace($sSDir, '[^2]+', ""), "2+", StringRegExpReplace($sPath, '\\', "\\\\")), $sSDirF[3] = [0, StringReplace($sSDirFTMP, "*", ""), "(?i)(" & StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace("|" & $sSDirFTMP & "|", '\|\h*\|[\|\h]*', "\|"), '[\^\$\(\)\+\[\]\{\}\,\.\=]', "\\$0"), "\|([^\*])", "\|^$1"), "([^\*])\|", "$1\$\|"), '\*', ".*"), '^\||\|$', "") & ")"]

Sorry, but I can't be agree with you. Make a try with the Windows search. If you search for this mask *.dll the result never return files like system.net.dll_x86.

If I want to search for these files, I use this mask : *.dll*

So for me, it can't be an expected return.

There's a problem in this function. Your $sDir parameter has incorrect information in the header, it states:

; $sSDir - Optional: specifies whether to return files folders or both

; |$sSDir=1 Search subdirectory

; |$sSDir=2 Search subdirectory & Return Full Path

But inside the function itself, it doesn't look at whether $sSDir is 1 or 2, it returns the same results regardless of what you set $sSDir to, unless you set it to 0.

ElseIf $sSDir Then

That line only checks if it's True (not 0) or False (0). This follows the default parameter of the function where you set $sSDir=0.

I did some further testing and found out I was incorrect in my original assumption. The problem actually isn't that 1 and 2 for the $sSDir parameter return the same results, because they don't they return different results I just had made an error in my test script. The problem is that the $sSDir parameter takes a third option that's not mentioned, which is 0, which tells the script to not do a recursive search in the target folder. My apologies for that, but the header information is still missing that point, but definitely not a bug in this UDF.

EDIT:Corrected wrong information in my original post.

Hi,

I can't figure out a way to obtain non-recursive & fullpath result, instead of the non-recursive & filename only result (obtained through built-in parameter $sSDir=0).

Could someone help me please ?

If you search files (or subdirectory) in a specific directory without the recursive option, why did you need to store the path ???

You know it, so it's easy to add it on your result :

#include "_FileListToArrayEx.au3"
$Path = "C:"
$aArray = _FileListToArrayEx($Path, "*", 1, 0)
For $i = 1 To UBound($aArray) - 1
ConsoleWrite($Path & $aArray[$i] & @CRLF)
Next

EDIT : But I agree with you, DXRW4E would have been able to separate the recursive option and the return of full path. ;)

I did not want to change the original code, that and the setting and the original code for this reason the left so

However who wants to will be able to modify the code if they suffered, just put it so

$FPath = StringRegExpReplace(StringRegExpReplace($sSDir, '[^2]+', ""), "2+", StringRegExpReplace($sPath, '\\', "\\\\"))

in

$FPath = $sPath

So Default and always full path (no need to use more $sSDir = 2)

Sorry for my english

Thank you both for your feed-back

@TIem: I'm looking for files in a list of directories (specified in an XML file) ; each of these directories has a recursivity search boolean param. I thought about your solution, but it seemed to me more convenient and elegant to change the _FileListToArrayEx behaviour itself.

At the end of the day, I'm able to implement your proposal, because it's so easy.

@DRXW4E: I'm afraid I do not understand where to implement this or these new lines of code (not because of your english!). So, I'm going to adopt TIen proposal, except if you were so kind to indicate more clearly where to put this code excatly in the function, or even, separate recursitvity param from full path param, as stated by TIem.

Bye,

Your proposition doesn't work for root directory. You must modifie this part too

$sFileList &= $sDelim & $sFile
by
$sFileList &= $sDelim & $FPath & $sFile

I understand why you doesn't want make more modification on your function, but in my opinion, the recursive search and full path return must be a separate option.

To take care about what BrewManNH said about the $sSDir flag 0 and what FVn ask, this is my adaptation of your function :

@Tlem

Hi Tlem, Thank You, you're right, or forget that the full path is used only for subdir

to be honest I do not like much the fate of using many flags in a function (I mean best to use as little as possible, BITAND and really nice), I think the better way and what he or posted in first post

However who like that way will be able to use your script (that is already OK) in post above (_FileListToArrayEx($sPath, $sFilter = "*", $iFlag = 0, $iSDir = 0, $iFPath = 1)), so I think everything is OK

Many Thanks Again

@FVN

Now you can use for example

$iFlag = 0 + 8 --> Return both files and folders and Full Path

Or

$iFlag = 0 + 8 + 4 --> Return both files and folders and subdirectory and Full Path

Or

$iFlag = 1 + 8 + 4 --> Return files only and subdirectory and Full Path

Or

$iFlag = 1 + 8 --> Return files only and Full Path

ect ect ect ect

@All

already updated the first post

sorry again for my English

Ciao.
