how to find the last created subfolder

[carabusu]

I have a folder with a lot of subfolders and i need to find out which is the last created subfolders.

Tnx

i have a fast look in the function list and seem like there's no Foldergettime(), but as my personal view, you can use _Filelisttoarray() to list all subfolder, save them then use it to compare later

the new will not be in the list

Use my tool SMF, search for folders only and retrieve the created time from search.

Best Regards

Here's a bit of code I use for that:

Func _NewestDir($sPath, $Flag=0)
    If Not FileExists($sPath) Then Return SetError(1, 0, -1)
    If Not StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($sPath), "D") Then Return SetError(2, 0, -1)
    Local $dList = _FileListToArray($sPath, "*", 2)
    if not IsArray($dList) then
        msgbox (0, "Error", "Could not get folderlist from " & $sPath)
        Return
    endif
    If Ubound($dList) > 1 Then
        Local $NewstDir = $dList[1], $GetNewstDirTime = 0, $GetDirTime, $iArr
        For $iArr = 1 To $dList[0]
            $GetDirTime = FileGetTime($sPath & "\" & $dList[$iArr], $Flag, 1)
            If $GetDirTime > $GetNewstDirTime Then $NewstDir = $dList[$iArr]
            $GetNewstDirTime = FileGetTime($sPath & "\" & $NewstDir, $Flag, 1)
        Next
        Return $NewstDir
    Else
        Return SetError(1, 0, -2)
    EndIf
EndFunc

Use $Flag to indicate which timestamp

0 = Modified (default)

1 = Created

2 = Accessed
