Empty Directory

Hi

I am having troubles figuring out how to find if a directory is empty.

I am trying to us my.computer.filesystem.

but I am not having any luck

Try using the System.IO namespace,
for example:

'Dont forget to supply the path of the directory you want to test

Private Sub ShowFiles(ByVal path As String)

Dim strFiles() As String

strFiles = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(path)

If strFiles.Length <= 0 Then
MessageBox.Show("There are no files in this direcotry")
Else
'Do some code
End If

End Sub

VB Code:

Dim DirInfo As New System.IO.DirectoryInfo("C:\some directory\")
        MessageBox.Show("Total Files: " & DirInfo.GetFiles.GetLowerBound(0).ToString)

VB Code:

If IO.Directory.GetDirectories(folderPath).Length = 0 Then
            MessageBox.Show("The folder contains no subfolders.")
        End If
 
        If IO.Directory.GetFiles(folderPath).Length = 0 Then
            MessageBox.Show("The folder contains no files.")
        End If
 
        If IO.Directory.GetFileSystemEntries(folderPath).Length = 0 Then
            MessageBox.Show("The folder contains no files or subfolders.")
        End If
 
        If My.Computer.FileSystem.GetDirectories(folderPath).Count = 0 Then
            MessageBox.Show("The folder contains no subfolders.")
        End If
 
        If My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(folderPath).Count = 0 Then
            MessageBox.Show("The folder contains no files.")
        End If
