reading network drives

[joelmac]

Hi there,

I'm using the File object to navigate through my local file system on a windows machine. With File.listRoots() I can see all my drive letters, including mapped network drives, but I can't seem to see what's inside the mapped drives.

Is there something else I need to do to see inside the maps?
Thanks

You need to loop recursivly though the File objects (ie directories)

The same way that you would to get the directories on your local drive? It's not working.

I can see files and directories on my local drive fine and I can see the mapped drives, but I can't see any files or directories on the mapped drives.

File permissions issues ? I can assure you that with correct permissions on the networked drives that you can "see inside" as you can with the local drive.
