Finding Files

Hi,

i am writing an Explorer-like program by which you can browse in the File system.

I need to add a find function to my program.

What is the fastest way to do this in Qt.
I mean the fastest in running time not in coding time.

i hope i don't have to traverse the folders recursively by myself.

thanks...

See Qt Find File Example.

thanks ;

but this example does not have recursive search like Explorer does.
I need to search for a file name recursively?

QDir::entryList() method does not work recursively which this example demonstrates.

why cant you use a recursive algorithm like we did in our school for finding out the factorial? ..
just call the function again for each dir found in entrylist().

If your application is going to run only on unix/linux then i think you could just use shell's find.
