Fast File Search Utility App Demo With Source

[jpbro]

For those of you interested in exploring the source code, and that have an interest in RC6/RC6Widgets, below is a list of the classes that I have used, and a brief explanation of what they are used for. Explore the source code to deepen your understanding of them, and feel free to ask me questions here.

RC6 Classes Used:

cCrypt
- For hashing files and byte arrays (SHA-2/384/512/MD5)

cFSO
- For working with the filesystem (enumerating folders & files, checking folder/file properties, reading & writing files).

cBigInt
- For working with HUGE numbers (>64-bit max)

cArrayList
- For keeping track of folders to scan, with easy queue/dequeue

cMemDb/cRecordset
- For storing drop-down list values and match results.

cCommand
- For parameter based building of down-down list data

cDirList
- For quickly enumerating files and folders

cTimer
- For pumping the Search loop while keeping the UI thread responsive

cStringBuilder
- For fast string concatenation

cConstructor
- For registry free instantiation of RC6 objects

cActiveScript
- For JS regex engine support

cStream
- For searching file contents. I'm doing this with a "chunked" approach so that files >2GB can be scanned.

cThreadHandler
- For threaded content searching & hashing of large files, keeping the UI thread responsive.

cWidgetForm
- For building RC6-based forms for search options, progress, and results.


RC6Widgets Classes Used:

cwButton
- For demonstrating the use of RC6 Button widgets.

cwDropDownList
- For demonstrating the use of RC6 Drop Down List (i.e. ComboBox) widgets.

cwTextBox
- For demonstrating the use of RC6 TextBox widgets.

cwLabel
- For demonstrating the use of RC6 Label widgets.

cwProgressBar
- For demonstrating the use of RC6 Progress Bar widgets.

cwGrid, cwVList
- For demonstrating the use of RC6 Grid widgets in virtual list mode.
