Question

I got a directory with the following structur.

Name-
   -Year1
      -Month1
        -Day1
          -file1
        -..
      -...
   -Year2
      -Month1
      -...
   -...

Now i have 2 dates 2009-01-02 and 2010-02-03.

I want to ask if anyone knows how i can list all files which are in the folders in the given time, without building a giant if-else construct.
If possible without any other frameworks than Qt.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

Have a look at QDir::entryList(), which will list all the files in a folder. You can construct the directory path like so:

QString path = QDir::currentPath() + "/" +
               QString::fromNumber(year) + "/" +
               QString::fromNumber(month) + "/" +
               QString::fromNumber(day);

and then do

QDir dir(path);
QStringList files = dir.entryList();

You can do the same for the other date and then combine the two QStringLists.
