Namespace: Alphaleonis.Win32.Filesystem
Assembly: AlphaFS (in AlphaFS.dll) Version: 2.0

Syntax

public static string[] GetFiles(
	KernelTransaction transaction,
	string path
)

Public Shared Function GetFiles ( 
	transaction As KernelTransaction,
	path As String
) As String()

public:
static array<String^>^ GetFiles(
	KernelTransaction^ transaction, 
	String^ path
)

static member GetFiles : 
        transaction : KernelTransaction * 
        path : string -> string[]

Parameters

transaction: Type: Alphaleonis.Win32.FilesystemKernelTransaction
The transaction.
path: Type: SystemString
The directory to search.

Return Value

Type: String
An array of the full names (including paths) for the files in the specified directory, or an empty array if no files are found.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentException	The path parameter contains invalid characters, is empty, or contains only white spaces.
ArgumentNullException

Remarks

The returned file names are appended to the supplied path parameter.

Remarks

The order of the returned file names is not guaranteed; use the Sort() method if a specific sort order is required.

Remarks

The EnumerateFiles and GetFiles methods differ as follows: When you use EnumerateFiles, you can start enumerating the collection of names before the whole collection is returned; when you use GetFiles, you must wait for the whole array of names to be returned before you can access the array. Therefore, when you are working with many files and directories, EnumerateFiles can be more efficient.
