Using C# (.NET), how can I search a file system given a directory search mask like this: (?)

\\\\server\\Scanner\\images\\*Images\\*\\*_*

Answer 1

Edit: Ahh, new functionality with .NET 4 so you don't have to do a recursive function (Thanks Matthew Brubaker)

IEnumerable matchingFilePaths2 = System.IO.Directory.EnumerateFiles(@"C:\some folder to start in", filePatternToMatchOn, System.IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories);

First Answer:

//get all files that have an underscore - searches all folders under the start folder
List matchingFilePaths = new List();
String filePatternToMatchOn = "*_*";
FileUtilities.GetAllFilesMatchingPattern(@"C:\some folder to start in", ref matchingFilePaths, filePatternToMatchOn);

...

public static void GetAllFilesMatchingPattern(String pathToGetFilesIn, ref List fullFilePaths, String searchPattern)
{
    //get all files in current directory that match the pattern
    String[] filePathsInCurrentDir = Directory.GetFiles(pathToGetFilesIn, searchPattern);
    foreach (String fullPath in filePathsInCurrentDir)
    {
        fullFilePaths.Add(fullPath);
    }

    //call this method recursively for all directories
    String[] directories = Directory.GetDirectories(pathToGetFilesIn);
    foreach (String path in directories)
    {
        GetAllFilesMatchingPattern(path, ref fullFilePaths, searchPattern);
    }
}
