DIRECTORYRECURSE()

[MarcoBoschi]

Hi,
With this first command

aDir := DIRECTORYRECURSE( "*.*" )

I do not load into aDir array files without extensions

in this way instead

aDir := DIRECTORYRECURSE( "*" )
all files are loaded
Is it normal?
best regards

Works fine for me using latest xHarbour from SVN. This is a sample:

Code: Select all

#include "Directry.ch"


FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL aDir := DIRECTORYRECURSE( "*.*" )

    LOCAL i

    FOR i = 1 TO LEN( aDir )
        ? aDir[ i, F_NAME ]
    NEXT

    INKEY( 0 )

    RETURN NIL

Marco,

can confirm this behaviour and I think it's logical, because the pattern "*.*" is not suitable for files without extensions in opposite to "*"

[MarcoBoschi]

frose,
please try these two different commands from any folder in any volume

DIR *.* /S
DIR * /S

and count the files listed


note that the numbers of files listed are the same.
In a program these two different ways to call the same function

aDir := DIRECTORYRECURSE( "*.*" )

aDir := DIRECTORYRECURSE( "*" )

return different array if are present files without extension

Something is not working and
EMG confirms that in the latest version this problem has been fixed

Sorry, I was wrong. I didn't have any file without extension.

Marco,

yes, you are right. The default pattern is "*.*" for all available files (and directories), also for files with no extension!

It works for Directory() but for DirectoryRecurse() the files with no extension are NOT included!

Yes, I confirm this is a bug and it has been corrected now.
