Using File.list()

[inwonder]

Hi,
Im using FMS 3 on the server side when onConnect occures i need an array of
all file that is the directory root/streams/myApp
how do use the File.list() ? do i need to create a new file just for getting
the list of files of the directory? and how do i get to do that on the
directory i want ? is it like this:
File.list(function(name){ return name.indexOf("streams/myApp/")!=-1);
i so the example in the doc files :
var a = x.currentDir.list(function(name){return name.length==3;});
does x is a File object? and where the currentDir came from its not a File
property?

Please help ...

In SSAS, File objects represent both files and directories.

The "x" in the examples just means "arbitrary thing that has a member of
whatever type we're talking about." In this case, "x" is something that has a
member called "currentDir" that's a File object (presumably representing the
current directory).

I'm pretty sure you can create an equivalent like this:

currentDir = File(".");

Also, your search isn't going to work the way you expected. The find function
doesn't search all subfolders recursively, and the name parameter only gets the
filename (the last component of the path), not the entire pathname. You're
going to want to open streams/myApp as a File, then just list everything in it.

Hi,
first thank, second i'm not sure that File(".") gives the current directory
because when i tried it and then trace x.name i got nothing also it faild open
it. but how do i move to the directory i want the best was if i could create
this file object on the directory where all the files i want are. but how do i
do that . i tried x.position = "/streams/myapp" but i don't think that what it
ment for. so any idea?
