TFindFile v3.40

Postby PeterPanino » August 25th, 2004, 10:46 pm

I would like to search for directories (hidden and not hidden).
If I set the following properties:

ffDirectory := True;
ffHidden := True;
ExactMatch := False;

then it finds directories AND hidden files (I don't want files - only directories).

If I set:
ExactMatch := True;
then it finds only hidden directories (no visible directories).

So how can I find hidden AND not hidden directories?

Thanks,
Peter

While you have set

Code: Select all
ffDirectory := True;
ffHidden := True;
ExactMatch := False;

Instead of using OnFileMatch, use OnFolderChange event.

Thank you for the advice!

I've another problem with TFindFile:

In Included wildcards seem to be supported only for the filename part!

But it would be very helpful if it could find files in paths like:

m:\dir1*\dir2\*

This would be very helpful! (And I need it).

Yes, I know I could use very complex workarounds to get this functionality, but it would be cumbersome ...

Thanks,
Peter

Adding such kind of mask checking could be very time consuming, and most of the component's users don't need it. So, you have to make it yourself, sorry.

You could include it as an option (default off)?

Thanks,
