[Solved] C# get everything inside a folder

Solution 1

WPF has nothing to do with the file system. Your question is a C# question. In the System.IO namespace is a Directory class, it has static GetFiles and GetDirectories methods, which you can use to recurse through the file system

i see, if use GetFiles and GetDirectory need to use foreach loop??

I didn't say anything about a loop. I said you can recurse if you want to go through several levels.

i got this but only list the files and folder in D:\testfol if want to list out all files and folder inside D:\testfol\test1 but folder selected path is D:\testfol is it possible?? DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@fol.SelectedPath); FileInfo[] fi = di.GetFiles(); foreach (FileInfo f in fi) { if (f.Attributes.ToString().Contains(FileAttributes.Hidden.ToString())) { listresult.Items.Add(f.FullName); } } foreach(DirectoryInfo d in di.GetDirectories()) if (d.Attributes.ToString().Contains("Hidden")) { listresult.Items.Add(d.FullName); }

Yes, this is called 'recursion'. Search this site for articles on recursion, basically your method takes a path as a parameter and keeps calling itself as it goes down the tree.

You can use the code below

foreach (System.IO.FileInfo fi in new System.IO.DirectoryInfo("D:\\testfol").GetFiles("*.*", System.IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)
             {
// do something
             }
