vb.net | How to get empty subdirectories in a specified path ? using vb.net

Question

My directory structure is like below.

• dir1 > subdir1_1 >((subdir1_1_1 >subdir1_1_1_1),subdir1_1_2)

• dir2

  tow main directories and subdir1_1 have 2 sub-directories (subdir1_1_1 ,subdir1_1_2) and subdir1_1_1 have sub-directory "subdir1_1_1_1"

Ok

Now I have this code

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim BaseFolder As New IO.DirectoryInfo(Me.TextBox1.Text)

        For Each f As IO.DirectoryInfo In BaseFolder.GetDirectories()
            AddContents(f)
        Next
    End Sub
    Sub AddContents(ByVal BaseFolder As IO.DirectoryInfo)


        For Each subF As IO.DirectoryInfo In BaseFolder.GetDirectories()


            ListBox1.Items.Add(BaseFolder.FullName)

            AddContents(subF)
        Next
    End Sub
End Class

Try it this way

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    Dim BaseFolder As New IO.DirectoryInfo(Me.TextBox1.Text)
    ListBox1.Items.Clear()
    AddContents(BaseFolder)
End Sub

Sub AddContents(ByVal BaseFolder As IO.DirectoryInfo)
    ListBox1.Items.Add(BaseFolder.FullName)
    For Each subF As IO.DirectoryInfo In BaseFolder.GetDirectories()
        AddContents(subF)
    Next
End Sub
