B4J Question Select the directory from the PC

[strupp01]

I would like to browse the directories on my PC (hard disk C: and D . A directory is to be selected, which is then stored as a working directory in my program.
Is there a library or does someone have a small program?

Mmmm...

I would do something like this:

Dim dirs() as string = array as string("C:/","D:/","E:/") 

For each d as string in dirs
If file.exists(d,"") and file.isdirectory(d,"") then
Log(d & " is usable")
End if 
Next

No, I mean a listing in a ListView. There I can switch to subdirectories and select a directory, which is then selected as a working directory. So a dialog box.

Oh okey.

Just recently had a conversation in a similar fashion.

Look at this thread, is for a treeview instead of a list:
https://b4x.com/android/forum/threa...y-with-checkbox-and-more-than-1-levels.78751/

There we put the file.isdirectory to disregard the files and use only the subfolders.

Wouldn't it be simpler to use the built-in directory chooser (or maybe it's called file chooser. I am on the phone now so I can't check).

Edit:

I look at both times. Thank you
