SDK create efu file

Post by horaki22 »

Hello everyone
I was wondering whether there is away to get the result of the following command through the SDK.
"Everything.exe -create-file-list "ab.efu" "c:\somefolder"
I looked at the SDK functions, but I could not tell whether this is possible. I guess I can work with the above call, but an SDK version might be a bit nicer.

I will consider adding support to create EFU files to the SDK.
Thank you for your suggestion.

For now, please try one of the following:



Call Everything to create a file list from disk (not your index):

"Everything.exe -create-file-list "ab.efu" "c:\somefolder"



Call ES to create a file list from your index:

ES -export-efu "ab.efu" "C:\somefolder\"



Create your own EFU file:
Call FindFirstFile to enumerate items in a folder.
Recurse any found folders.
Save items to your EFU file with the correct UTF-8 CSV format:
Size as bytes.
Dates as FILETIMEs
Attributes as Windows File Attributes.
