guinness Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Look in the help file for Run, StdoutRead, If...Else...EndIf and Operators. Then you should be good to go. An example of StdoutRead from V3.3.9.5 alpha. expandcollapse popup#include <Array.au3> ; Required for _ArrayDisplay only. #include <Constants.au3> ; Recursively display a list of files in a directory. Example() Func Example() Local $sFilePath = @ScriptDir ; Search the current script directory. Local $sFilter = "*.*" ; Search for all files in the current directory. For a list of valid wildcards, search for 'Wildcards' in the Help file. ; If the file path isn't a directory then return from the 'Example' function. If Not StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($sFilePath), "D") Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0) EndIf ; Remove trailing backslashes and append a single trailing backslash. $sFilePath = StringRegExpReplace($sFilePath, "[/]+z", "") & "" #cs Commandline parameters for DIR: /B - Simple output. /A-D - Search for all files, minus folders. /S - Search within subfolders. #ce Local $iPID = Run(@ComSpec & ' /C DIR "' & $sFilePath & $sFilter & '" /B /A-D /S', $sFilePath, @SW_HIDE, $STDOUT_CHILD) ; If you want to search with files that contains unicode characters, then use the /U commandline parameter. ; Wait until the process has closed using the PID returned by Run. ProcessWaitClose($iPID) ; Read the Stdout stream of the PID returned by Run. This can also be done in a while loop. Look at the example for StderrRead. Local $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID) ; Use StringSplit to split the output of StdoutRead to an array. All carriage returns (@CR) are stripped and @LF (line feed) is used as the delimiter. Local $aArray = StringSplit(StringTrimRight(StringStripCR($sOutput), StringLen(@LF)), @LF) If @error Then MsgBox(4096, "", "It appears there was an error trying to find all the files in the current script directory.")
