AIT_FindFirstFile
- Organization of this page
Description
Uses a file search handle to return the first filename that matches a specified filename.
Format
bool AIT_FindFirstFile ( string strFileNamePattern, // Filename string strFileName, // Found filename integer nSearchHandle // File search handle );
Parameters
strFileNamePattern (input)
Specify a valid directory name, path or filename. You can also use a wildcard (*). If the character string ends with the wild card, period or directory name, the user must be authorized to access all the subdirectories on the path.
strFileName (output)
Specify a variable for receiving the name of a found file that matches a set filename. When the function returns, the variable stores the found filename.
nSearchHandle (output)
Specify a variable for receiving a file search handle to be used to subsequently find AIT_FindNextFile and AIT_FindCloseFile. When the function returns, the variable stores the file search handle.
Return values
The return value is true if the function was executed normally, and false if not. If the function has returned false, you can use AIT_GetLastError to acquire an extended error code. The following gives the error codes that AIT_GetLastError might return:

Notes
This function uses only a filename to find the file. It cannot use an attribute to find the file. Independent of the presence or absence of subsequent \, you cannot specify the root directory as a strFileName input character string for AIT_FindFirstFile.
Use AIT_FindCloseFile to close a file search handle returned by AIT_FindFirstFile.
