I am writing a code in C# to show the unknown number of images from a specified folder into a "listview" I don't know how to get all the files present in that specific folder. I know I have to use a loop and array but I don't know how. Here is the code which I use to access files with the "known name of file". It's a windows form app.
private void btnZoom_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ImageList imgs = new ImageList();
imgs.ImageSize = new Size(100, 100);
string[] paths = { };
paths = Directory.GetFiles("TestFolder");
try
{
foreach (string path in paths)
{
imgs.Images.Add(Image.FromFile(path));
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
listView1.SmallImageList = imgs;
listView1.Items.Add("2",0);
}
Here is the working code:
and the code is :
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
listView1.Items.Clear();
imageList1.Images.Clear();
string[] pics = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles( "pics//");
listView1.View = View.SmallIcon;
listView1.SmallImageList = imageList1;
imageList1.ImageSize = new Size(64, 64);
foreach (string pic in pics)
{
imageList1.Images.Add(Image.FromFile(pic));
}
for (int j = 0; j < imageList1.Images.Count; j++)
{
ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem();
item.ImageIndex = j;
listView1.Items.Add(item);
}
}
and at designer set this:
