Get all folders of a publication using Core Service

Question

Using Tridion Core Service how can we get existing folders of a particular publication. I am using SessionAwareCoreService2010Client class to create folders but could not locate in above class a proper method in core service to fetch list of all existing folders. Please answer with sample code.

Any help would be appreciated.

I can't test it at the moment, but it will be something like this:

var rootFolderUri = "tcm:1-1-2";
var filter = new OrganizationalItemItemsFilterData();
filter.ItemTypes = new[] { ItemType.Folder };
filter.Recursive = true;

var listXml = client.GetListXml(rootFolderUri, filter);

foreach (var itemElement in listXml.Descendants())
{
    ...
}
