I searched for a long time now, msdn google ect., and found nothing like it.
I need to search for a file that has the sting in it.
So like if I said to find all files that have "virus" in there name, it would return the paths of the first file found. Then I can use somthing like fileFindNext to get the next file. And so on.
And I will give a reason why right now....
I am making a semi tracking cookie protection. It will be weak but good enough for me. Might cover some bad viruses as well.
nvm
Though if somone does know one it would help but nothing will suit my needs.
So I created my own. It works perfectly and just how I want it.
I used my BOOK to help me out. My book has a who section on Directories, Files, Asynchronous I/O, Netword I/O, Web Streams, Serialization, and Isolated Storage.
Yeah you'd basically do:
However to search all directories you'd have to use some recursion, I can provide a sample later if you want.Code:string[] files = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(path, "*virus*"); foreach (string f in files) { // do what you want with the file now you have it's name }
ok fine mister "I am better than mister Alex". My way has more code, which therefore could be slower.
I will see what I can do with these codes. And nah I don't need an example, my book teaches recursion though directories in the windows form section.Code:DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(@"C:\Documents and Settings\Alex\Cookies"); FileInfo[] filer = dir.GetFiles(); int length = filer.Length; int i = 0; while (i != length) { i += 1; string name = filer[i].Name; if (name.Contains("text to find here")) { MessageBox.Show("Found cookie!"); } }
Edit: And no I am not being mean, it is in a friendly way.
