is there a method to enumerate through all entries in a directory,
all the way down.. ( not just the top level in a directory )
Yes,
(File name: 'foo') allFilesMatching: aPattern do: aBlock
the "aPattern" has to be in the same syntax as String>>#match:, so ?
is
replaced by # and * works as in the shell.
Or you can use #all the same as I was suggesting for chown:
i have to admit, i either missed that or it didnt stick in my head.
(File name: 'foo') all do: [ :file | ]
(File name: 'foo') all namesDo: [ :string | ]
(File name: 'foo') all filesMatching: aPattern do: aBlock
(File name: 'foo') all namesMatching: aPattern do: aBlock
I'm experiencing some weirdness with this...
this works:
file := File name: '/Users/Spooneybarger'
file all do: [ :e | e isDirectory ifTrue: [ e name printNl ] ]
if i do:
file := File name: '/Users/Spooneybarger'
file all do: [ :e | e isDirectory ifTrue: [ e directories printNl ] ]
i get no output other than: "Global garbage collection... done, heap
grown"
over and over and over
yet a boring old
file directories printNl
works fine.
i'm really just playing around right now. shouldnt i get output from the
ifTrue: [ e directories printNl ]
does the fact that I'm not mean that I have a messed up build?
Thanks for your work again, every stumbling of yours will
make GST a better product for others to learn.
I would call my stumblings work, but you are welcome nonetheless.
Thank you for the assistance in getting me up and runing.
