How would you go about setting a variable to check if a FOLDER exists,(not file)
Return TRUE if exists??
Return TRUE if exists??

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
Although there is no main way it's super easy to just check for a file in that folder. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] So for example check for c:\windows\desktop\myfolder\myfolder.txt or whatever, if it doesn't exist then neither does the folder... Just one workaround...

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
thats what I'm using now as a workaround, I figured there would have been a better way, What would the code to "GetInformation.File = TRUE if Exists" look like? could I expand off that somehow? or like always....wait for Worm to do it?Comment

Not sure what you're talking about...

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
.File\GetInformation\Action Properties\Existence("TRUE" if file exists)
If I used this action to check for a file, could this action not be modified for Folder instead?Comment

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
I've come across this myself. I ended up writing a DLL to take care of it.
Pick it up hereComment

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
Cool .dll Worm. It would be nice to have a bunch more folder functions no doubt, i.e. find, rename, move, copy, etc...

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
Worm does it again!!! , I'll incorporate this dll into some test projects...get the feel for it, but it looks good so far.
Where would I also find the functions for the "GetFolders.dll"Comment

Re: TRUE if Exist Directory
All I needed was to know if a folder existed, so thats all I wrote. If you have some ideas, pass them on and I'll see what I can come up with. No promises though, I'm still fairly new to C++ and its a complex language[img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif[/img]Comment

No I didn't mean from you, I meant in AMS 5. Although... [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
C++ is awesome, way too boring for someone like me but awesome for sure. I'm sure your brain gets used to it after a while. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
