Charles,<br>
<br>
you're right (I assumed you'd find it once you know it's there
:-))<br>
<br>
Never had to care about BOM headers, so I didn't know what they
are until I looked them up now. But I read UTF8 files all the
time.<br>
Entering bom in the search field yields some methods e.g. in
UTF8TextConverter, I assume that's why I never ran into it. Seems
to 'just work' (TM).<br>
<br>
Also there's FileDirectory>>fileNamesMatching: which may
help you with your file names matching.<br>
<br>
Re generators, make a seperate post for a new topic, people may
assume I replied already.<br>
<br>
Or try Squeak dev.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

<div>No Squeak handy but there is a allfilesinalldirectories.
This will give you all files in all subfolders. Tonight I
will look up the real name but you may be able to find it in
FileStream or similar yourself. </div>

Betreff: [Newbies] Walk directory of files? <br>
<br>
<br>
What is the best way to walk a directory of files?<br>
It would be nice is I could just:<br>
Get next file?<br>
exitst? ifFalse then done<br>
match pattern? ifFalse, then go to first step<br>
return file<br>
<br>
This requires that the method track where I am. I think I can
figure <br>
out how to stuff them into a collection, and return the entire
<br>
collection of matched files, and perhaps that's the right
answer, but <br>
that's not the way I would do it in Python or Ruby, so perhaps
it's also <br>
not the way to do it in Smalltalk.<br>
<br>
Also, if it matters, the files will be utf-8 files, many of
them with <br>
BOMs. (Well, not really BOMs, since it's utf8, but the utf8
header.) <br>
Does Squeak recognize BOM headers?<br>
<br>

I think that means I should use<br>
Files-Directories : FileDirectory : fullNamesOfAllFilesInSubtree<br>
and store the collection as I walk through the files processing
them rather than use what Python would call a generator.<br>
<br>
Do you know whether when reading a utf8 file the BOM is
recognized? Or do I need write a handler to strip it off?<br>

If you don't know about generators, and know about file handling,
I'll assume that that's not the Squeak idiom. I can do the same
thing with a Collection, I just do things in a slightly different
order. <br>
<br>
And thanks for the help.<br>
