I am looking for a C# library for getting files or directory from a directory using a complex pattern like the one used in Ant:

  • dir1/dir2/**/SVN/* –> Matches all files in SVN directories that are located anywhere in the directory tree under dir1/dir2
  • **/test/** –> Matches all files that have a test element in their path, including test as a filename.

Do I need to code it myself? extract what I want from NAnt? Or this library exists and my google skill sucks.

Directory.GetFiles(String path, String searchPattern) doesn’t handle directory pattern and NDepend.Helpers.FileDirectoryPath neither (it’s a great library for path manipulation by the way)
