Folder Listing
Folder Listing input tasks list the files present in a selected folder and give you the option to
use filename masks, to sort files by name or date, and to list the files present in the selected
folder’s subfolders. The lists it generates are in XML format.
Input
Folder Listing captures nothing, however it does read the input folders (and, if selected,
subfolders) and gathers information about each file in that folder.
Processing
Folder Listing loops through the files and, for each file, generates an XML node with information
about the file.
Output
The output is an XML file containing information about each file. If the Sub-directories option
was checked, the structure of the XML also contains the folder structure as it is present on the
drive.
Here is a sample of the XML that is generated:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<files count="3" filemask="*.*">
<folder>C:\Samples\<file>
<filename>invoice.pdf</filename>
<path>C:\Samples\</path>
<time>2012/06/01 16:14:40</time>
<size>81452</size>
</file>
<file>
<filename>test1.pdf</filename>
<path>C:\Samples\</path>
<time>2013/01/17 09:13:50</time>
<size>20197</size>
</file>
</folder>
