Get File Names

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I'm getting contents of the folder to a array by using following code

string[] aFolderContents = Directory.GetFiles(strSourcePath, "*.*", SearchOption.AllDirectories);

Then I loop through the array to get the each file names.
foreach (string strFiles in aFolderContents)
	{
		Console.WriteLine(strFiles);
	}

But when I getting like this,
the output gives as C:\FolderName\FileName.txt
Before the file name folder name contains with spaces.

You can also use FileInfo class to get the file names.

C#

foreach (string strFiles in aFolderContents)
    {
        FileInfo fi=new FileInfo(strFiles)
        Console.WriteLine(fi.Name);
    }

If you want to get the File name only, use the following piece of code:

foreach (string strFiles in aFolderContents)
{
	string FileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(strFiles);//Gives you file name only
        Console.Write(FileName);
}
