file.filesInFolder
| Syntax |
file.filesInFolder (path, level)
|
| Params |
path is the path to a folder. level determines how deep the traversal goes: If level = 1, file.filesInFolder doesn't go into any sub-folders. If level = 2, it also counts the files in any sub-folders. If level = infinity, it counts files at all levels, nesting into folders inside of sub-folders, and so forth.
|
| Action |
Counts the number of files in the indicated folder and, optionally, sub-folders.
|
| Returns |
The number of files or folders at the specified path.
|
| Examples |
file.filesInFolder ("C:\\Program Files\\Frontier\\", 1) 21
file.filesInFolder ("C:\\Program Files\\Frontier\\", infinity)
file.filesInFolder ("System:System Folder:", 1)
file.filesInFolder ("System:System Folder:", infinity)
|
| Notes |
This verb determines the count by traversing the whole structure, which can be time-consuming. The folder at the specified path is counted. In other words, if path specifies a folder which contains a single file, then the return value will be 2.
