I know I can do this… glob(‘/dir/somewhere/*.zip’); …to get all files ending in .zip

I know I can do this…

glob('/dir/somewhere/*.zip');

…to get all files ending in .zip, but is there a way to return all files that are not ZIPs?

Or should I just iterate through and filter off ones with that extension?

    I don’t think glob can do a “not-wildcard”…

    I see at least two other solutions :

    • use a combinaison of opendir / readdir / closedir
    • Or use some SPL Iterator ; To be more specific, I’m thinking about DirectoryIterator ; and maybe you can combine it with some FilterIterator ?
