RESTFSEEK()
Restores the FILESEEK environment
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
RESTFSEEK(<cFileSeekEnvironment>) --> cNull
Argument
<cFileSeekEnvironment> Designates a string that contains the
FILESEEK() environment, which was passed by SAVEFSEEK().
Returns
RESTFSEEK() always returns a null string.
Description
RESTFSEEK() restores a saved FILESEEK() environment. Use both of these
functions to run through subdirectories recursively.
Example
The following small program shows all the files in all directories of
the current drive, from the root. The GETFILES procedure can be called
recursively:
DO GetFiles WITH "\" // Starts with root directory
RETURN
* ----------------------------------------
PROCEDURE GetFiles(cSearchPath)
PRIVATE cSeekEnv // Picks up SEEK environment
? // Empty line for new dir.
* All files, all attributes
cFile := FILESEEK(cSearchPath + "*.*", 63)
DO WHILE .NOT. EMPTY(cFile)
IF cFile <> "." // ".." and "." are dummys
IF ISBIT(FILEATTR(), 5) // Subdirectory?
cSeekEnv := SAVEFSEEK() // Save environment
* Recursive call with extended path!
DO GetFiles WITH cSearchPath + cFile + "\"
RESTFSEEK(cSeekEnv) // Restore environment
ELSE
? cSearchPath + cFile
ENDIF
ENDIF
cFile := FILESEEK() // Next file
ENDDO
RETURN
