Using 'glob' to get a listing of files

[Vinni]

Hi there,

I am using following code lines to get a list of files:

set listFiles [glob -nocomplain "C:/test_Imagefiles/*.gif"]

I can't get it working. I am on Windows2000 platform. What am I doing wrong ? Any suggestions ?

thanks

It seems to me it is working.
Try to remove the option nocomplain to see what kind error message you may get.

% set filelist [glob -nocomplain "C:/Program Files/*.exe"]
{C:/Program Files/Win2000PPAHotfix.exe}

"I can't get it working"

Can you describe what happens and what is unwanted?
A short example should be welcomed.

How 'bout [glob -nocomplain c:/test*/*.gif] ??

 

[Vinni]

I am trying to create a list of all the '.gif' files using:

set listFiles [glob "C:/test_Imagefiles/*.gif"]


I get following error message:

no files matched glob pattern "C:/test_Imagefiles/*.gif"
while executing
"glob "C:/test_Imagefiles/*.gif""
invoked from within
"set filelist [glob "C:/test_Imagefiles/*.gif"]"

I think the diag is correct.
Can you try:
cd C:/test_Imagefiles
puts [glob *.gif]
?
