LFile::BrowseDir

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LFile::BrowseDir(pszPath, pszFilter, pThumbOptions, bStopOnError=FALSE, bIncludeSubDirs=FALSE, bExpandMultipage=FALSE, lSizeDisk=0, lSizeMem=0)

L_TCHAR * pszPath;	directory to browse
L_TCHAR * pszFilter;	file filter, ex *.jpg
pTHUMBOPTIONS pThumbOptions;	pointer to thumbnail options structure
L_BOOL bStopOnError;	stop on error flag
L_BOOL bIncludeSubDirs;	True/False to recurse sub directories
L_BOOL bExpandMultipage;	True/False to expand multipage files
L_INT32 lSizeDisk;	maximum size of file to load
L_INT32 lSizeMem;	maximum size of image to load

Browses the specified directory for supported images, and generates thumbnails for each image file that is found.

Parameter	Description
pszPath	Character string containing the name of the directory to browse for images
pszFilter	Character string containing the file filter to use for browsing. Ex. *.jpg
pThumbOptions	Pointer to a structure containing the thumbnail creation options for the browser.
bStopOnError	Flag that indicates whether or not to stop generating thumbnails when an error occurs. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	Stop generating thumbnails if an error occurs.
	FALSE	Do not stop generating thumbnails if an error occurs.
bIncludeSubDirs	Flag that indicates whether or not to recurse subdirectories when looking for files. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	Recurse subdirectories.
	FALSE	Do not recurse subdirectories.
bExpandMultipage	Flag that indicates whether or not to expand multipage files. If True, each page from a multipage file will be loaded. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	Expand multipage files, loading each page from a multipage file.
	FALSE	Do not expand multipage files.
lSizeDisk	Maximum size of file to load. Use this to limit the size of images that the browse will attempt to load. Pass 0 for no limit.
lSizeMem	Maximum size of image in memory to load. Use this to limit the size of images that the browse will attempt to load. Pass 0 for no limit.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Use this function to browse a directory for image files that LEADTOOLS supports. Each supported file that is found will be loaded, and a thumbnail will be generated for the image. In the callback function, you can process the thumbnail in any manner your application requires. For example, you can add the thumbnails to the LEADTOOLS ImageList Control.

If 0 is specified for either nThumbHeight or nThumbWidth, the image will not be resized. The whole image will be returned in the LFile::BrowseDirCallBack function.

If -1 is specified for either the nThumbHeight or nThumbWidth, the image will not be loaded at all. The LFile::BrowseDirCallBack function will be called for each file, but will only receive file information, not a valid image.
