Recursive Find Files in DephiSimple and very useful Delphi and Pascal function to Recursive Find Files in Dephi from a given starting directory or drive.
This function will recursively scan a folder and execute a function each time a file is found. This function will be run each time a file is found.
pascal
Function LogFiles( Const path: String; Const SRec: TSearchRec ): Boolean;
Begin
Listbox1.Items.Add( path+SRec.Name );
Result := True;
End; And this is the main function called with four parameters. FindRecursive('c:/path/to/files/', '*.ext', LogFiles, TRUE)
LogFiles is the name of the above function, and the last parameter decides whether to recurse or not.
pascal
procedure FindRecursive(const path: string; const mask: string; LogFunction: TLogFunct; Re_curse: Boolean);
var
fullpath: string;
function Recurse(var path: string; const mask: string; Re_curse: Boolean): Boolean;
var
SRec: TSearchRec;
retval: Integer;
oldlen: Integer;
begin
//Recurse := FALSE;
Recurse := Re_Curse;
oldlen := Length(path);
retval := FindFirst(path + mask, faAnyFile, SRec);
while retval = 0 do
begin
if (SRec.Attr and (faDirectory or faVolumeID)) = 0 then
if not LogFunction(path, SRec) then
begin
Result := False;
Break;
end;
retval := FindNext(SRec);
end;
FindClose(SRec);
if not Result then Exit;
retval := FindFirst(path + '*.*', faDirectory, SRec);
while retval = 0 do
begin
if (SRec.Attr and faDirectory) <> 0 then
if (SRec.Name <> '.') and (SRec.Name <> '..') then
begin
path := path + SRec.Name + '/';
if not Recurse(path, mask, Re_curse) then
begin
Result := False;
Break;
end;
Delete(path, oldlen + 1, 255);
end;
retval := FindNext(SRec);
end;
FindClose(SRec);
end;
begin
if path = '' then
GetDir(0, fullpath)
else
fullpath := path;
if fullpath[Length(fullpath)] <> '/' then
fullpath := fullpath + '/';
if mask = '' then
Recurse(fullpath, '*.*', Re_curse)
else
Recurse(fullpath, mask, Re_curse);
end;
