Hi I have been able to hide hidden files but i cant seem to get the directories to hide my files code is -

public override DirectoryItem ResolveDirectory(string virtualPath)
{

        DirectoryItem basedir = base.ResolveDirectory(virtualPath);
    
     

        string physicalPath;
physicalPath = this.GetPhysicalFromVirtualPath(virtualPath);

if (physicalPath == null)
return null;

DirectoryItem result = new DirectoryItem(PathHelper.GetDirectoryName(physicalPath),
virtualPath,
virtualPath,
virtualPath,
GetPermissions(physicalPath),
GetFiles(virtualPath),
new DirectoryItem[] { }// Directories are added in ResolveRootDirectoryAsTree method
);

        // Update all file items with the additional information (date, owner)
        DirectoryItem oldItem = base.ResolveDirectory(physicalPath);
        List<FileItem> visibleFiles = new List<FileItem>();
        foreach (FileItem fileItem in result.Files)
        {
            // Get the information from the physical file
            FileInfo fInfo = new FileInfo(physicalPath + "\\" + fileItem.Name);
            // Add the information to the attributes collection of the item. It will be automatically picked up by the FileExplorer
            // If the name attribute matches the unique name of a grid column
            fileItem.Attributes.Add("CreationDate", fInfo.CreationTimeUtc.ToString());
            fileItem.Attributes.Add("ModifiedDate", fInfo.LastWriteTime.ToString());

            
            
            FileAttributes fileattr = File.GetAttributes(physicalPath + "\\" + fileItem.Name);
            if((fileattr & FileAttributes.Hidden) != FileAttributes.Hidden)
            {
                visibleFiles.Add(fileItem);
            }
        }

        DirectoryItem result1 = new DirectoryItem(PathHelper.GetDirectoryName(physicalPath),
                                                    virtualPath,
                                                    virtualPath,
                                                    virtualPath,
                                                    GetPermissions(physicalPath),
                                                   visibleFiles.ToArray(),
                                                    new DirectoryItem[] { }// Directories are added in ResolveRootDirectoryAsTree method
                                                );

        return result1;
}

 

Which works really well my Directory code is code is - > 

   public override DirectoryItem ResolveRootDirectoryAsTree(string path)
{

        
        

        string physicalPath;
string virtualPath = string.Empty;       

if (PathHelper.IsSharedPath(path) || PathHelper.IsPhysicalPath(path))
{
physicalPath = path;

foreach (KeyValuePair<string, string> mappedPath in MappedPaths)
{

if (physicalPath.StartsWith(mappedPath.Value, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
{


string restOfPhysicalPath = physicalPath.Substring(mappedPath.Value.Length);


virtualPath = mappedPath.Key + restOfPhysicalPath.Replace('\\', '/');


virtualPath = PathHelper.AddEndingSlash(virtualPath, '/');
break;
}
}
}
else
{
virtualPath = PathHelper.AddEndingSlash(path, '/');
physicalPath = this.GetPhysicalFromVirtualPath(path);
           
if (physicalPath == null)
return null;
}

      


        DirectoryItem result = new DirectoryItem(PathHelper.GetDirectoryName(physicalPath),
string.Empty,
virtualPath,
string.Empty,
GetPermissions(physicalPath),
new FileItem[] { }, // Files are added in the ResolveDirectory method
GetDirectories(virtualPath)
);

        return result;
}

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hello Paul,

 

Basically, you should handle that in the ResolveRootDirectoryAsTree method (as seggested in this post: http://www.telerik.com/forums/radfileexplorer-and-hidden-folders#2jrGnmFt_kO1L21RRzVMXQ) and programmatically filter the hidden folders so that they are not added to the Directories collection. 

 

A basic filtering logic for folders is available here: http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/aspnet-ajax/fileexplorer/details/hide-certain-directories-and-files-in-radfileexplorer
