Excluding Files

[tester123]

This is a rather simple question,

I would like to exclude certain files when I use _FileListToArray

Local $fileList = _FileListToArray(@scriptdir, "*.au3") ;List of all AutoIT files to execute

The above code fetches all au3 files, but I would like to exclude 2 specific files. It would be a hassle to use ArraySearch and ArrayDelete, so is there a way I could directly specify the exclusion in the filter criteria itself?

Something like

Local $fileList = _FileListToArray(@scriptdir, "*.au3|^"Utilities.au3";^"Helper.au3"") ;exclude Utilities.au3 and Helper.au3

Thank You!

_FIleListToArray doesn't have any way to exclude files/folders. The beta version has _FileListToArrayRec which does have a way to exclude files and/or folders from the listing. If you look in the Example scripts section you can find the original called RecFileListToArray by Melba23, that is what it was called before being added to the beta.

Thank you both! At the moment, i can only use components built in to the released version. But thanks anyway!

tester123,

Might I ask why?

The suggested solutions are UDFs written using those standard components and are simply AutoIt scripts which you include in your own code.
